Principles, principles, principles

Or watch Democracy die...

Despite the fact that Donald Trump is historically unpopular for a President, that he's massively underwater with Independent voters, and that more and more Americans are waking up to the fact that the Trump economy is working well for the wealthy and not so well for the other 90% of us, we are going to be inundated with voices telling us that to win the Presidency in 2020 Democrats need to run a campaign that is centrist in nature. 

Never mind that a solid majority of Americans now support healthcare for all.  Never mind that 70% of Americans support raising taxes on the wealthy.  Or that two/thirds of Americans still support a woman's right to choose.  Or that support for labor unions hasn't been higher in a generation.

You know who spouts this nonsense?  Weak-kneed republican pundits who lack the courage to call out Trump but fear that now is truly the time for Democrats to push the envelope because Donald Trump is so historically weak and imperiled.

The only way Democrats lose the White House in 2020 is if they run as republican lite. 

Go bold or go home.

Fuck Donald Trump,
