52) Obama eventually opposed the Dakota Pipeline, but his sluggish response to the green anti-fossil/nuke resistance slowed the movement against global warming;
53) Obama and Hillary's support for fracking has made it easy for Trump to do the same;
54) Support for massive nuke bailouts by Corp/Dems like New York governor Andrew Cuomo and Ohio representatives Marcia Fudge, Marcy Kaptur, and Tim Ryan continue to let dying, obsolete, money-losing nuke reactors pollute the planet, warm the atmosphere, and cripple economic growth and job production;
In 2018:
55) Despite continued bitterness over how Bernie Sanders and the millions of (mostly young) social democrats who rallied behind him got shafted, the Corp/Dems continue to resist meaningful reform of the party and nation;
56) Victorious young progressives like New York's Alexandria Ocasia-Cortez offer hope for a revived Democratic Party run by energetic young social democrats with a blue-green vision and the legs to get there;
57) But nothing real can happen until the corrupt, comatose Clinton-Gore-Kerry-Pelosi-Schumer-Cuomo Corp/Dems wake up or move over.
There is of course much more.
But above all, a revived Democratic party that can effectively oppose Trump demands an exciting collective vision that's worth fighting for.
In this new century, the Corp/Dems have lost the presidency they legitimately won three times and thrown away a thousand other elected offices. They still have done nothing to confront the stripping of the voter rolls, flipping of electronic voting machines, machinations of the Electoral College. They perform poorly in office and offer zero real vision that might excite an electorate desperate to remove Trump, but lacking a real opposition party with which to do it.
In a world dominated by millionaires and billionaires, where elections have devolved to "One Dollar, One Vote," the Corp/Dems offer no hope.
So now it's up to a grassroots movement of rising green social democrats.
To overthrow Trump we must first overcome the old Corp/Dem hacks.
Let's DO IT!!!
