We all know if the Dems win in 2020 pass DA... as have been proven white voters will probably hogtie them in 2022 and then oust them by 2024. Republicans will then move in and start reversing everything like they are doing now with Obama's policies. This seems to be a crucial part of why we don't seem to be getting as much real push for change with Dems other than kicking can down the road/things standing in place --It's better than nothing but they need to figure out how to get beyond this BS stunt republicans are always pulling.

They need to fix what they are very terrible at --which is selling their policies to voters and most important reinforcing that sh*t. They are not aggressive enough and constantly take it for granted that voters are going to see through the republican propaganda machine and rise above it. Its time to stop playing defense all the time and start being on the offense more.
