Sad to say, we have become like post-invasion Iraq. Our politics have now become violently sectarian, with each side not trusting the other, and not willing to share power with the hated opposition.
Given this fact, the Democratic opposition must clarify its position, and stop being the party of Republican-lite.
Until the opposition party defines itself in outright progressive fashion, and cuts its close ties to Wall Street and its corporate donors, it will correctly be perceived as part of the problem rather than a potential solution.
It is clear by now that people are looking for an alternative to Trump’s radical attacks on democracy and good government. We must relentlessly return the Democratic Party to its roots, and have it restore its relationship with the working class in America rather than continue to speak progressive while acting corporate.
