@jptrib1 Politics is about emotion The GOP created a false narrative since Reagan of people of color steal $ & jobs from the White working Bill Clinton didn't fight back but triangulated with GOP with cruel welfare reform & mass incarceration as Democrats courted corporate money & Wall St
@kurteichenwald If the Democratic party hadn't become the Reagan Lite party under Clinton they coud have been educating the public to resist GOP Trickledown nonsense and race baiting Instead they were too busy triangulating with the GOP and courting corporate money Dems lost their identity
And in today's upending of precedent, the Supreme Court financially cripples unions, ruling people can get benefits of unions without paying dues.
Hey, protest voters: YOU caused this. Trump got fewer votes than Romney. He won because people voted 3d party or not at all.
@CharlesMBlow Doing his job Patiently stalking Trump crouched silent and out of sight like a tiger in the jungle and waiting to pounce when the time is right for him
NO new Supreme Court nominations by Trump to replace Justice Kennedy. NONE. He is in blatant violation of the Constitution and must be impeached. Senate and House Judiciary Committee hearings are way past due. I have had it with appeasement of aspiring dictators.
@Betty12584988@fuertecorazon@SusanWDavis3@Lawrence The reputable reporters are the ones being treated like crap. this admin wants to get rid of all media except FOX. He discredits all other stations at every opportunity. All he wants is state run TV/propaganda. NoK only has 1 tv station. That's Trumps goal.

YOUNG FEMALE SOCIALIST HISPANIC CHALLENGER WHO CROWLEY SHOWED SO MUCH CONTEMPT FOR THAT HE DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER SHOW UP FOR A DEBATE
DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP NEEDS TO GET YOUNGER HUNGRIER AND MORE PROGRESSIVE IN ORDER TO TAKE USA BACK https://t.co/Px7zwfIKTD
Missing a scheduled debate, or even worse refusing to debate, is a great way to lose a primary. Voters are tired of politicians who think they are entitled to their positions.
