Soon, Trump will try to pass his multitrillion-dollar tax cut for billionaires. The Democratic Party must be ready to fight back.

Standing up for working families is what we're here to do.

They better be! What the hell have they been doing since the election? Anyone know how they're preparing for the next four years.

What is most effective way to stand up and fight back for us non-influencers who did phone calling and letter-writing during the campaign? (and in my case some neighborhood corner rallies)

jolaslo.bsky.social•68 days ago

The billionaires save tax money. The normal people have to pay the bill.

jannnwi.bsky.social•68 days ago

Over 1/2 the country voted otherwise. The repetition was not a good teacher. MaGA just do not get it.

ashleymieras.bsky.social•67 days ago

Please stop saying half the country. It wasn't half the country. This is a dangerous talking point that was used for people not to fight back in the 1940s. They are not half the country. Don't give them that power.

jannnwi.bsky.social•67 days ago

Over half of voters did vote for tRump. It's a fact.

ashleymieras.bsky.social•67 days ago

You said half the country and I corrected it.

jannnwi.bsky.social•67 days ago

I will give you that. Happy Holidays

What is your plan for protecting democracy, assuming it survives?

What is your plan for corruption in the courts?

What is your plan for removing billionaire ownership of political parties?

What is your plan for removing immunity for elites?

From Michelle Baker-

ONE MORE TIME for those in the back! Biden can ANNUL the 2024 election due to:
1) Proven Russian interference;
2) Inconsistent/altered results;
3) Constitutional disqualification of Trump based on his "participation in insurrection;" and
4) Oath to protect the Constitution

We must demand an increase in corporate tax rates so we can pay the nation’s bills without cutting social sec., medicare, medicaid or affordable health care. People deserve healthcare and to live with dignity when they can no longer work, far more than
corporations deserve bigger profit margins.

How do you plan on bridging the media gap/raising up news sources that aren’t part of the msm? To start, you should start doing more long form interviews with outlets like @meidastouch.com and @moreperfectunion.bsky.social throughout your campaign for DNC chair.

captmillennial.bsky.social•68 days ago

Disgusting. I want a president who cares about ALL of the American people, not just the rich ones.

mogo2025sky.bsky.social•68 days ago

Ben is on the case- and the Party should skip the beauty contest and elect him asap so he can start the long slog and lead us out of the wilderness.

kimmy45.bsky.social•68 days ago

Make sure everyone knows social security doesn’t have to be sacrificed for this. There is no way he won’t get the tax cuts. This is why he’s there. We can’t allow elderly to become poor, homeless and forgotten. Save what you can

adria88.bsky.social•68 days ago

Please Mr. Wikler cut out the cheap slogans. How is the Democratic Party going to fight back? Who is going to lead the fight? What about standing for retired, disabled, homeless folks? What about fighting for adequate education? Time for talk specifics. Happy Holidays.

Donald Trump will blow up our National Debt again to please his wealthy donors.

Multi-Millionaire Florida Republican Rick Scott will then cry out, “The Government is Broke!”

monafran11325.bsky.social•68 days ago

Thanks Ben!

birdiegirl2.bsky.social•68 days ago

I hope it's more than just some harshly worded speeches

hersheykiss.com•68 days ago

Today he’s advocated for the complete annihilation of transgender people on his first day. I’d be more concerned about that right now if I were you. But maybe you’re like every other Democrat and just use us as a prop in your political theater.

nodakbronco.bsky.social•67 days ago

I totally agree!! Very important point!!!

flat5flat9.bsky.social•68 days ago

For the Democratic Party to fight effectively, they will need to have something that people will really fight for. The "less terrible than the Republicans" neoliberal party is embarrassing. They define "not quite as bad as it could have been" as success.

We need something better.

cowgirl52.bsky.social•68 days ago

The Democrats are Worthless! 🤣

mtnmystic.bsky.social•68 days ago

The Democrats better be ready to fight, because the alternative will be brutal. Want to reduce our national debt? TAX the RICH!!! It’s either that, or sooner or later it’ll be Eat the Rich. Their choice. The clock’s ticking.

You are Correct

We need you to stand up to the wealth class for the working class.

Help us in #ny21. Thanks brother.

Sadly @fetterman.senate.gov will vote yes

johno5.bsky.social•68 days ago

Strike back, how? What’ve you got planned? Are you planning a nation-wide labor strike until minimum wage is raised to $25 and maximum wage set at 100x lowest wage, with organized March on Washington and corresponding local rallies demanding these?

drstevenquest.bsky.social•68 days ago

Ben, I’d like to hear you say, “The Democratic Party is ready and planning to fight back.” What’s the plan? Who’s leading it? And what’s the plan to push back on Trump’s dangerous and incompetent cabinet picks?

adria88.bsky.social•68 days ago

Agree. The Democrats are the minority in the Senate and House, which comes on January 6th. So, again, what's the plan?

doorcounty56.bsky.social•67 days ago

Sure would like to see a forensic audit of last election, remain suspicious.
