Well, US policymakers are already ok with 45 million Americans dying yearly for lack of health insurance. They'll find a way to rationalize this.

We need to keep doing it, to both parties. In truth, getting a lot of constituent calls really annoys them, ties up staff. That's getting their attention. If they're complaining, its working.

The CPC is weaker and more timid than they used to be. They seldom disagree with Establishment Democrats protecting the status quo. Let's hope that changes in the coming year.

Anyone on the left who falls for this act is very naive.

Is someone claiming he's a Progressive? Has he made that claim? He's from a long line of Establishment Democrats.

Is this the drunken fool who is on video dancing around naked on some reality tv show? I don't waste my time listening to him.

Rand Paul is still not a "good guy". All Republicans are bad and can't be trusted. The sooner Democrats realize that, the sooner we'll stop being duped by them.

Show us the money, Trump. Open all the books, make sure donations are deposited and all expenditures accounted for. Not a nickel of taxpayer money should go to this project.

Single Payer Medicare for All that allows working people to buy full coverage through payroll deduction was the better plan in 2009-2010. The single payer proviso keeps costs affordable by cutting out the "middle-man", ie insurance companies.

The Lincoln Project is not a Democratic organization. Why do Democrats like it? Why don't they just create their own version of it instead of supporting an arm of the GOP propaganda machine?

So, what can we do about it? One possible idea would be to re-unite and reform the Democratic Party to make sure it wins future elections.
We really don't have a choice. I don't feel optimistic about our prospects right now.

Over-reliance on micro-targeting and "identity politics" has harmed the public and caused the Democratic Party to lose touch with their voters. I think some of them are starting to wake up to the idea that things work best when you serve everyone.

No thanks. I don't support any Republicans for any reason. The notion of "good" Republicans is a myth, post-Citizens United. They have nothing to offer Democrats that they can't accomplish on their own. Democrats who supports "good" Republicans is confused.

In addition, Trump likely doesn't care about Poland. He probably thinks its Europe's problem, not his.
