(2,941 posts)that rise of Trump plays well with the New Wall Street Democrats overall goal of increasing corporate influence, outsourcing jobs to Asia, deregulating Wall Street.
There are many who post here who LOVE Hillary. But when asked to defend her unbridled attack against the middle class with the ideology she embraces, they have nothing to say except they support free markets.
What we have is the New Hillary Democrat is very similar to the Old Reagan Republican. It's just that the wing nuts have moved into la la land. I wonder how far right the DNC will move to keep up.
In the end both DNC and RNC aide the only real constituency this country has - billionaire Wall Street CEOs.
Neither Democratic or Republican leadership gives a rat's ass about the middle class or below except to pander to them with fears about terrorism at election time.
Like any business, DNC and RNC is concentrating on those with money. It's all about profit.
