How single payer helps Republicans change the subject

34. And where did campaigning on a popular idea at the time get the rethugs?

It only gave them the house, the senate, the SCotUS, most governorships and state legislatures, and the presidency.

We absolutely can't have that!

The lesson of the GOP's failure (and The ACA's success) is that if we want to pass MFA or single payer we will need a large enough majority that democratic moderates won't kill the bill or we are going to have to come up with compromise bill working with GOP moderates.

This whole MFA will hurt us meme is self defeatism from conservative Dems who want compromise our position before we even begin negotiating and the vindictiveness of Sanders Derangement syndrome suffers who refuse to stop refighting the primary and have to find someway to turn ANY POSITION Bernie supports into a negative.

Supporting MFA helps us defend against the criticism that all we are about is opposing Trump and have no solutions of our own. It does something that the Democratic Party desperately needed and Bernie excels at. It gives us a positive and grand vision of what we want to do to help the country that can inspire people! That is why Dems like Booker, Warren, Harris, etc. support it!

It makes us the party of "yes we can" again! At least it would if we quit listening to those who think "no we can't" is a winning strategy...
