There’s been some handwringing among the left the past couple of days. The thinking is that the Mueller Report is the final nail in the coffin on the Democrats’ 2020 electoral prospects. Many have decided to come out and say that the conclusion of “no collusion” will produce a two-term presidency for Donald Trump. But, the 2020 Election is not going to be about 2016 or what Donald Trump did during his business career.
Instead, 2020 is going to be about . . .
Your health care. The number of uninsured Americans has increased by 7 million since Trump became president, the quality of coverage is decreasing, and women’s access to health care is being cut off.
Your job. People are still facing lay-offs and closures like the 1,700 GM workers laid off in Lordstown, still facing cost-of-living increases that outpace their wages, and still facing an inability to pay for their everyday needs.
Your country. We have a foreign policy that’s based not on the national interest but on Trump’s personal views of the involved foreign leader. We are creating a more dangerous world in which nuclear war is more likely. And, we are flagrantly violating human rights by separating children from their parents.
Stay focused on what really matters. Stay focused on how disgustingly unfit Donald Trump is for public office. Stay focused on how our country is falling short in so many ways. If we do that, we will win in 2020.
