Democrats have an uphill battle because they have to fight against Republicans and the corporate controlled far right M$M.

Here is what is scary; as long as Republicans control the White House, they control everything. Democrats need a veto proof majority to pass anything. What is scarier is that Trump and McConnell have been packing the courts with Nazi judges who are there for life. They are going to add judges to the 9th circuit to make even it a Nazi district.

Socialism doesn't sound so bad to me compared with authoritarianism.
