Wilson prescribes: "The House and Senate leadership must... discipline their members in areas ranging from ethics to affect."
Kill crony capitalism: Rick Wilson writes, "Americans know and feel that the deck is stacked against them when it comes to Washington offering the biggest, wealthiest, and most irresponsible players the power to define markets, protect themselves from risk, and leave taxpayers with the bill. It's time to stop it." Amen.
If Democrats are truly the Party that's "good for people," they must stop all aspects of crony capitalism.
Stop fighting the last wars: With regards to issues such as gay marriage and marijuana use, Wilson observes: "It's time to tell the evangelical cohort in the GOP that that since they've shown their true colors by giving Donald Trump a series of mulligans on his port-star-screwing, p*ssy-grabbing, serially adulterous life, they've lost their moral authority to scream at the rest of us." We can only hope that the adults within the GOP evangelicals will read Wilson's book and change their behavior.
While this is an impressive list, there are (at least) two more suggestions that all Democrats would do well to consider. We can't continue to spend so much on "defense." In 2018 the U.S. spent more than $600 billion on defense spending; more than China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, France, United Kingdom, and Japan combined. That's ridiculous.
We must take action to head off the impact of climate change. This seems so obvious that it amazing that it has to be mentioned. But it does. Trump doesn't believe in climate change and the GOP has followed his lead.
By the way, everything Trump touches dies.
