It’s too easy to run “Not Trump” as a platform and throw some bones to the fringe groups. A real platform would include things like Universal Healthcare, Free College, etc… Instead they like limping along and allowing people like Pelosi to get insanely rich insider trading. Countering MAGA would’ve been easy…but MAGA is too profitable for the Ds to ditch at this point.
