@janbb “I wonder how you think we’ll ever get to Medicare for All.”
Well it’s a winning issue. 67% of Americans want it (including 43% of Republicans). If a politician fights for it, there’s a good chance they’ll win the election. If I were a Democrat, I would be terrified that Trump will out-left Biden on healthcare. It would be an obvious tactic.
I think Biden proclaiming he would veto it is just more evidence that defeating Trump isn’t priority #1 for team Biden. Also 87% of Democratic voters support it, but the amendment to add it to the party platform was defeated 36 to 125. Again, the DNC is completely misaligned with their voters.
We’ll get Medicare for all when the people take back the party from fuckers like Perez, Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Feinstein, Obama, Warren, Harris, Buttigieg, etc.
4 more years of Trump may expedite that process which far from impossible. Clinton was up 7 points on Aug 4. 2016, and Biden is up 7.4 as of Aug 4, 2020. Biden’s lead over Trump in many battleground states, like AZ, IA, NV, NC, OH, and PA is narrow.
