When you already have 67% of the country who believes you are a liar.

Why would you rely on republicans to give you cover on the transcript issue? The DNC and her supporters have some soul searching to do. They have laid bare their desire to protect the plutocracy at all cost in public. Don't see how the party survives this.

The Democratic Party needs to get back to a genuine New Deal populist message, stay consistent and honest, and it will be a juggernaut.

Don't and not so much.
