What elected Dems REALLY need is the courage to stop taking big money and raise taxes on the wealthy to finance what most Americans need
Friends,
I recall participating in heated debates in late 1968 and early 1969 about why Democrats lost the presidency to “tricky Dick” Nixon. And another set of debates in the early 1980s about why Democrats lost to smooth-talking right-winger Ronald Reagan.
And then, after the disastrous midterm elections of 1994, why they lost both houses of Congress. And then in 2000 and again in 2004, why they lost to the insipid George W. Bush. And, worst of all, in 2016 and then again in 2024, to the monstrous Trump.
These debates usually occur within the rarified precincts of Democratic think tanks located in well-appointed offices in Washington, D.C.
