If you believe that then you do not understand what the Democrats were in 2005. And you do not understand what they are now.

They're the enemy. They are doing their best to destroy the West and bring about centralized Communist control. And they were working toward that goal in 2005. And in 1995. And before.

I believe that large corporations have too much power over individuals in negotiating employment conditions. The solution is unions. It is an imperfect solution that results in many workers taking advantage of union protections to be terrible workers. But it is the best we have.

I believe that corporations, or rather the people who own these mega corporations, continually get more powerful. Using things like bribery, regulatory capture, and media manipulation they get more and more oppressive of the lower classes. The unions are not strong enough to combat this. The only solution is a government solution. It is an imperfect solution that results in problems.

I believe that at some point the Democrat party was an attempt at this. It was imperfect. What it has since morphed into is another captured seat of power by the elite. In order to prevent another Democrat party that would seek to challenge their power the elite are engaging in a divide and conquer war against the people.

It doesn't matter what your feelings are about Democrats, so long as you can recognize the tyranny of the ultra rich and the need to fight back.

The unions are a tool. The democrats are trying to push communism. They had a plan and they are executing it. They don't like Trump because he got in their way.
