Will the Democratic Party Take the Fight to the Rich? - Thom Hartmann

Americans don't like the rich and the Democratic Party needs to harness this if we ever want to win an election again.

A caller asks how the Democratic Party can reclaim its roots and prioritize middle-class economics like FDR once did and like Bernie Sanders does now. Will the Democratic Party become the party of the working class?

Thom and Ed discuss strategies for grassroots change, from Elizabeth Warren and Bernie’s vision to taking over local party platforms and building a movement from the ground up.

making work as attractive as speculation, grifting, and fraud

our values of "diversity/equity/and inclusion" will meet less resistance.

the courts need a good hosing out as well. "justice matters"
