Dem leaders DO know how to fight. They fight hard against anyone on the left, against ideas (like single-payer health care) that Americans overwhelmingly support. But ever since last November, when they should have been fighting hard, they've just rolled, saying what can we do? Now send us money.

The top 1% now owns more than $54 trillion in wealth.
Thatβs 468 times more than the bottom 50%.
One man, Elon Musk, owns more than the bottom half COMBINED.

π€£π€£π€£π€£π€£ You've got to be kidding. This is the same leadership you champion, the one consistently rolling over (e.g. Schumer voting for the GOP CR, quashing any attempt to replace dinosaurs with new, passionate, younger candidates.)
