I think we're overlooking their owner/donors who hide out through their dark money -- the Koch network that intends to end democracy, starting with pushing neoliberal trickle-down economics to force impoverishment on Americans (with their two-Santa operatives across rethug administrations to weaken our taxpayer funded budgets & grow our debt, then ALEC & legislatures, then with the courts, and now the House.

It's them I'm really betting against. And so is the Democratic Party.
