Declaring "old-fashioned capitalism has broken down to the detriment of consumers" and "Adam Smith has lost his way amidst these big corporations," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and other congressional Democrats traveled to a red pocket of purple Virginia today to spell out their new agenda.
**SNIP**
After losing in 2014 and 2016, Schumer argued, Dems need to not "flinch" or "blink," but look in the mirror.
"Democrats have too often hesitated from directly and unflinchingly taking on the misguided policies that got us here - so much so that too many Americans don't know what we stand for," he said. "Not after today. President Trump campaigned on a populist platform, talking to working people, that's why he won. But as soon as he got into office, he abandoned them, making alliance with the powerful, special interest, Koch-brother-dominated, hard-right wing of the Republican Party, which appeals to the very wealthy, not the working people - leaving a vacuum on economic issues. We Democrats are going to fill that vacuum."

We could revamp Stalinism and call it, I dunno, Schumerism?
No Cuckie Shumer, you and your crony friends have strangled it.
Schumrr has broken down.
“Make America Socialist Again”
You have no Constitutional rights to international free trade-none. Actually the opposite it true.
I hear some uber-compassionate Democrats prefer the “Strength Through Joy” slogan. (smirk)
Who was in charge for most of the past decade? Gnomes?
"Todays recycled Democrat talking points do nothing to change the fact that the far-left has taken hold of the party and continues to push a message of more resistance and obstruction," she said. "Until Democrats make a real effort to work with Republicans and President Trump on the priorities voters supported last November, they are going to continue to be lost in the electoral wilderness."
KA. BOOM.

This man has never produced anything in his life except blather. He has been in government since graduating Harvard. I submit he knows nothing about capitalism, running a business, or even a simple day’s work of hard labor. Given a choice of hitching my wagon to Schmuck Schumer or Adam Smith, I know whom I will choose.
UpChuck Scremer needs to recognize that it is the Democrats who gave everyone in America the RAW DEAL by creating ObamaCare.
Why should we expect the Democrats to be the solution to any problem?

I agree that there’s problems. Too much regulation that benefits big corporations, lots of cheap labor driving down wages, lots of politician’s palms being greased. But I’ll never believe that a democrat has the solution to this. They like it too much.
The Dems never let old fashioned capitalism get off the ground. They don’t let anyone accumulate capital or keep profits.
A trillion dollar infrastructure program? They come up with Stimulus II and call it a new idea?
Liberal Democrat policies have broken down “Old-Fashioned Capitalism.”
The cure is Trump! MAGA
Schumer and the leadership in the Democrat Party are Evil in my opinion as I have said many times. I watched the Democrat Party manipulate the vote when adding God to its platform at the 2012 Convention in Charlotte, NC. I watched the same group manipulate the vote for Hillary Clinton. I do not trust many Republicans but I trust only one National Democrat and that is a shallow trust at that.
Maybe he can organize a group of Senate and House Democrats to go live in Venezuela for awhile, just to learn their alternative to capitalism..
But a 1850 economic disaster that has murdered 200 million people is a success, right Schmuckie.
well, at least chuckie told us what “better deal” REALLY means: it means socialism.
America’s white-collar middle class is being destroyed as well; we import millions of Asians to take their jobs.
