Eliabeth Warren sent out a message, which I excerpt in abbreviated form:
It's time for a female president, boys-'n-girls. The Electoral College, this disgraceful un-democratic mechanism that manipulates the popular-vote, stole hers from Hilary. And, as a consequence, we have a PotUS afflicted with acute narcissim.
That occasion might come in another two years. But, this year, for those who think this country has been seriously distressed by a dunce-PotUS, we can show him the power of Congress. Just like the Replicants did to Obama in 2010.
For those who want change, soon and badly, November is your target! Don't lose sight of it.
Those who think that Donald Dork will address and correct the issues in red within Elizabeth's message above are hopelessly beyond political reality. Sanity is telling us that we, the sheeple, must take back at least the HofR this year, and the presidency in 2020.
If not, your standard-of-living will remain in a steep, steep decline whilst boy-Donald plays silly games in his presidential sandbox ...
But let’s be honest: My mother’s story isn’t possible today. A family of three can't make a mortgage payment on a minimum wage job. Adjusted for inflation, the minimum wage today is lower than it was in 1965 – about 24% percent lower. Mothers are working harder than ever, but today, a minimum wage job won’t keep a momma and a baby out of poverty. Over the past generation, from 1970 to 2015, wages have been flat – but housing costs have risen by 50%. Health insurance expenses have doubled. College degree costs more than tripled. And the cost of child care? It has gone up nearly 1000%.
My mother didn’t have much when she died, but she knew that her four kids had a fighting chance to build a future – and that made her life successful. Where mothers and families end up in life today is about more than hard work and good fortune – the rules for a level playing field matter too.
