It's been over a year since their brutal defeat and they don't even seem to have a single platform to run on. Meanwhile, the GOP has already passed a tax plan that will save money for most americans, sounds like the ACA mandate is about to get tossed, ISIS is pretty much defeated, and the stock market is the highest it's ever been. This time around, leftists won't have the "no presidential experience" excuse, and gays and "minorities" didn't lose all their rights like they said would happen, so they won't be able to make those claims again. And the Russian collusion investigation has already fallen flat on its face.

I really don't see how democrats think they can win this time, especially with no real apparent platform to run on. All they've done for the past year cry and make up fake stories about Trump.

Do the democrats have any platform yet, other than "at least we're not Trump"?

Of course, more than one.

1.) Trump colluded with RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA, even though he's never even implied it, we can find no evidence of it, and all he ever did was make a public joke about Russia finding Hillary's 33,000 missing emails since they probably hacked her server. But we think we can fool our less intelligent voters into thinking he did anyway, so we'll keep flogging this line forever.

2.) Trump is going to fire Mueller, even though he's never even implied it, we can find no evidence of it, and all he ever did was answer "No." to a question shouted by a fake-news "reporter" asking if he was going to. But we think we can fool our less intelligent voters into thinking he thought about it anyway, so we'll keep flogging this line forever.

3.) Sexual assaults, even after we spent years screaming that sexual activities outside the office had no bearing on his conduct IN office and were not "impeachable" or whatever word we used back when a Democrat president was doing it. But we think we can fool our less intelligent voters with short memory spans into thinking he did something worth kicking him out over anyway, so we'll keep flogging this line forever.

That sums up the Democrat "platform".

For sure those that have bought the Demonic Rat party have an agenda but they have to hide that agenda in order to get elected. Officially, the Dims only stand for Trump hate, nothing else.

Let's see:
We did not take away your health insurance and price you out of the market,
We did not cut your Welfare, Food Stamps, Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security,
We did not weaken our entire group Intelligence Agencies by attacking them all,
We did not remove regulations keeping big business from making your favorite creek/river into a toxic waste dump,
We did not alienate most of our trading and military allies and make the rest of the world hate us even more,
We did not give tax permanent tax breaks to the rich/big business and bribe you with a handful of silver to look away,
We did not allow oil companies to drill in nature reserves leading to the further decline in our heritage,
We did not support a budget that will not only drive more National Debt which you will have to eventually pay for all to give the elites more money,
We did not promise companies were going to move jobs back to the US and didn't,
We are not trying to control peoples personal lives, when it comes a woman's choice when it comes to her body,
We did not go after States that said we need to stop putting people in prison for smoking a weed,
We are not the GOP or Trump.........
I am sure they can make plenty more claims and get many to listen to them, do not think people will not listen, being too smug in ones position can and often does come back to bite you in the arse.

Their platform is: If Americans won't vote for us, we'll import people that do!

So rather than come up with actual goals, they'll just create a list of things they didn't do? And you think this is a recipe for winning elections?

I think by 2020 (if the clown is still in office) 'At least we aren't Trump' should be good enough.

You think it would not work for them? How cute? Never said I agree with the list as being the correct method, I am neither a Democrat or Republican, both Parties are a mess, and both sell out to the almighty dollar, and I as an American demand better of our Reps. That said I am not Most Americans and they vote, often on how they view a politician, not a good sign for trump if the voters show up in high numbers.
