Well…now that the idiot trump has been slapped down by Nancy Pelosi both by depriving him his SOTU and by saying no to his stupid border wall and getting the government back open, there is another group that deserves some thanks, too…and that is the good folks who labor every day to keep this country running who just said enough of working without pay and stopped air travel on the East coast. This was the straw that got the repubs back to negotiating and shows us the path forward if this ever happens again…and one of the things we need to do as dems is to give labor and unions all  of the support we can on every issue since it is the right thing to do…and will be a huge factor in recreating the middle class in this country. We are all in this re-construction together and we need to welcome all groups who want to be part of it even it they have different ideas of how to get things done…and we do need to get things done, we need to start to repair the damage that the repubs have done over the past 40 years and make sure that everyone has a chance…not just the rich and entitled…and we need to get ready for 2020 when we can use our popular message to win and transform this country…that starts now…
