Bennet: Democrats Have ‘Lost Touch with Working People’

‘Most Americans feel like no matter how hard they work, their kids are not going to live a life better than the life they lead’

EXCERPT:

BENNET: "I think that a much more important question is what we're going to do, as the Democratic Party, to create a compelling view for Americans that are going to allow us to lead again. We should never have lost to Donald Trump once, much less twice. And there are many things I blame Donald Trump for, as you can tell from the conversation we've had today, but getting elected president wasn’t — isn't one of those things. The Democratic Party has lost touch with working people in our country, at a time when 50 years of trickle-down economics has meant that most Americans feel like, no matter how hard they work, their kids are not going to live a life better than the life they led. And I think the Democratic Party needs to use this moment of having been repudiated at the national level to figure out a creative and imaginative agenda for the 21st century that's going to lift the fortunes of working people and the middle class all across this country."
