From remains an unabashed centrist who believes that economic growth, not the economic populism of Sanders or Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is the answer. “It’s important the critical mass in the Democratic party show that it’s the party of opportunity, responsibility and community but not the party of the left,” he insists.

He also argues that the party should not be afraid to talk about law enforcement and developing a system of community policing rather than urging “defund the police”. Likewise it should embrace the idea of legal immigration and a border that is under control. From applauds governors who have made jobs available to people without college degrees.

    I’ve given two examples of what nowadays is considered a fairly obvious statement, namely that people shouldn’t be enslaved and that women are equal to men. One took a war to change, one didn’t. Both took centuries to change. The likeliest reason for one causing a war was the financial factor, which both women’s suffrage and trans rights don’t have. But good on you for focusing on the least relevant element, which wasn’t even a factor for one of those two examples. Frankly, I’m surprised you didn’t notice the fact that I implied that slavery still exists in America.
