No he is not.
I am tired of people missing the long term picture.
REAGAN started the age of deregulation and "don't tax the rich", long before even Bill Clinton was nationally known, long before even Bill ran.
What Reagan's GOP did was get the upper hand and control the narrative. If anything, the only thing Bill or Hillary could have been accused of back then was being held hostage. It also did not help that dems, as VOTERS gave up after Reagan successfully busted the air traffic control unions. Since then, between our voter apathy, GOP gerrymandering, our politicians have been held hostage.
BUT as voters, as far as our ideas, if we would grow a backbone, and swamp the GOP in numbers every November, every year, midterm or not, DEMS can win.
But our politicians are only as good as the support we give them.
AOC is also a democrat, and SHE is what we needed long ago to fight Reagan. Clintons were hostages forced to play by the GOP narrative. Politicians like AOC or Warren for that matter, are not going to be held hostage by the GOP. Hillary and Bill for that matter, were simply forced to play the GOP game. Times are changing though.
