To the editor: Columnist Jonah Goldberg writes that the Democratic Get together is “a large number” as a result of it’s “pretty perceived as extra involved with the pursuits of the few and fewer involved with the welfare and rights of the numerous” (“Maybe the latest Democratic disarray means they’re coming to their senses,” June 17). He then defines the “few,” at the least partially, because the lecturers’ and authorities workers’ unions.
Sadly, Goldberg misses the large image. It’s the Republican Get together that constantly offers tax cuts to the wealthy and the firms whereas they pay lip service to the center class and are overtly hostile to the poor. It’s the Republican Get together that appears to hate the unions — the financial motion that has most benefited the center class and the working class. It’s the Republican Get together that’s hostile to something that helps shoppers and the surroundings. It’s the Republican Get together that wishes to dismantle Social Safety, Medicare, Medicaid, the Reasonably priced Care Act, meals stamps for youngsters, the Shopper Monetary Safety Bureau and the Environmental Safety Company.
Donald Trump conned thousands and thousands of People into believing that he’s a populist who’s looking for his or her pursuits. The White Home’s Division of Authorities Effectivity reduce authorities funding and providers for applications that assist the center class and the poor, and now Trump is looking for tax cuts for the wealthy and firms. Trump’s “Large Lovely Invoice” will do extra of the identical. It ought to be apparent that Trump and the Republicans are usually not involved with “the welfare and rights of the numerous.”
