Surely it had nothing to do with years and years and neoliberalism you’re so keen on doubling down on.
C’mon millennials, you don’t want to do a socialism. Don’t you know it always fails? Step away from those means of production, and get over here for some Realistic™, Pragmatic™ policy that’ll totally happen this time. We won’t spend our entire time holding all three branches of government bellyaching about needing to be palatable to the right to keep power, and so we can’t do anything left of literally The Heritage Foundation’s healthcare plan, and then, after losing power, bellyache about needing to be palatable to the right to regain power, we swear.
