The Democrats are waging a war against the rich. It is a drag you down to our level type of campaign that will only lead to Trump winning.
2020 is being given to Trump and it is a sad thing.
"The rich" have been fighting a mostly one-sided war against the rest of us since the Reagan administration, and yet it only becomes a topic of conversation when the non-rich push back against it.
Don't get me wrong, Warren/Sanders are too far to the left on many issues for my own personal tastes. But according today's Republican party, any economic policy that isn't cutting taxes and benefits is "a war against the rich".
The problem is that we're in a era where well-reasoned, measured, well-articulated policy-making doesn't sell. Demagoguery does. It got us Trump, and there's a good chance it'll get us Warren or Sanders to oppose him in 2020. To a significant extent, this is the product of our broken-to-all-hell primary system which encourages politicians to abandon the center to win over their party's "base".
