Trump and his immigration policy won't be a story for long.

The problem with wealth is their power over workers, their families and those they would not hire. It is not the toys they buy for themselves that is the problem. It is how they treat others with the rest of their money.

Even as Trump is leaving, the values voters who are the useful idiots for capitalism are not, including some Catholics. Sadly, they lay the bait for a harsh sounding response. What Beto says is not beyond the norm. Bob Jones and the values voters toned down overt racism  when their tax status was threatened. This was the point when they suddenly became pro-life. The recent Title VII cases are about to make some of the Church's conduct illegal. We should not enable them.

Warren and Sanders are social democrats. I see no reason for capitalists to be involved at all in our work life, a microeconomic issue. The worship of CEOs and their enablers on corporate boards must end. Whether this is an electoral issue is hard to say. If Pelosi seeks her own term, the race will be for VP and Booker is her only choice. Also if she is able to get Mitch to confirm one. Making Warren VP would be seen as having a finger on the scale.
