    Democrats are the controlled opposition. It’s why they would never give Sanders a fair shake. He would upset them “good billionaires” because going further right is preferable than a single step left for the wealthy.

      Under the proposed Trump tax cuts, I bet a vast majority of our Democrat leaders are looking at a big tax cut. From their standpoint, they need to put up just enough push back to get re-elected next election. Don’t rock the boat and get on Trump’s bad side.

      We need to clump the corporate democrats with the Republicans. None of them work for us. We need more AOC, Bernie, Jasmine Crockett, Rep Maxwell Frosts.
