8. Dems still cling to the belief that there is a center in American politics.

What they do not understand or refuse to see is that income inequality has pretty much destroyed the middle class and along with it, the political center.

Case in point, you'd think that the Republicans and Trump would be in full scale freak out mode with Trump polling in the mid-30s, but they aren't freaking out. They don't care about a majority of Americans. Republicans only care about their own party, their own voters.
