    That’ll happen when you give Democrats the presidency and a majority in Congress and all they do with it is issue blank checks for war instead of addressing the needs of the poor and working class.

    It’s a replay of 2016, when Hillary (and Obama before her) ignored the Rust Belt and it lost her the presidency.

      and a majority in Congress

      Democrats do not have a super majority, which is a problem thanks to the fillabuster. So the only branch of government the democrats have is the executive, which is not enough to fix things.
