Trump, the human Molotov Cocktail (an explanation for why)

"Let me be as clear as I can be. In my view, Democrats will not retain the White House, will not regain the Senate or the US House, will not be successful in dozens of governor’s races all across this country unless we generate excitement and momentum and produce a huge voter turnout.

With all due respect, and I do not mean to insult anyone here, that turnout, that enthusiasm will not happen with politics as usual. The same old, same old will not work.

The people of our country understand that given the collapse of the American middle class and given the grotesque level of income and wealth inequality we are experiencing — we do not need more establishment politics or establishment economics.

We need a political movement which is prepared to take on the billionaire class and create a government which represents all Americans, and not just corporate America and wealthy campaign donors.

In other words, we need a movement which takes on the economic and political establishment, not one which is part of it."
