class Americans. Dem governors, state legislatures, senators, etc. have all been replaced by Republicans. No more blaming Democrats for their economic anxiety. No more blaming coastal elites when their jobs go overseas or are lost to automation. No more blaming Dems when their Social Security and Medicare are privatized, and fall short of offering benefits. No more crying when they lose their health insurance or their education system fails to prepare them for global competition.
We need to hold the Republicans fully accountable for their economic plight. If they still support Republicans even though they're still losing economically, then those groups are truly lost.
