[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people admire that Trump is making change when we’ve have past Dem Presidents telling us we can’t have x, y, z thing (ie lower healthcare costs, bodily freedom of choice, lower cost of higher ed) bc of a, b, c reason (ie that changes the status quo, the GOP would
Never let us, etc etc).

Now, Trump’s choice of X, Y, Z thing to focus on are pretty much all terrible changes. But they are dramatic changes nonetheless.

I am so hoping for a new crop of Dems to emerge willing to use his authoritarian style to do good in this world instead of Trump’s endless self-enrichment and grandiose gestures.  [/quote]

Heck, I'll settle for a new crop of Dems who are less focused on pandering to extreme views and take more moderate approaches like Clinton and Obama did.[/quote]

But there are huge structural changes that are needed to address our problems with housing, healthcare, bodily rights. [/quote]

If by “bodily rights” you mean abortion, that’s one thing. If you’re talking about transgender issues, particularly as it relates to kids, that’s an issue where the Democrats lost a lot of support. This is something the next Democratic candidate needs to navigate very carefully.[/quote]
