Democrats will continue the behavior they've demonstrated over the past decade. We need to be prepared this time, and plan accordingly.

And how do we ensure that Democrats will actually make an effort to keep their promises this time, after they squandered the trifecta we gave them, helped the GOP, and laid fertile ground for the return of Trump?

Excellent piece by @AriBerman on how the call to save our structurally flawed, money-dominated democracy backfired, boxing Democrats into “defending the skewed institutions that the public blames for their everyday problems.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Too often, their message of preserving American democracy reinforced a failed status quo.
