This is why Republicans are attacking education, pressuring news companies into only presenting them positively and attacking their opposition ("here's why Biden's successes are bad for Biden"), attacking tech companies to pressure them into allowing their disinformation to spread, etc. They're "playing the refs".

Supporting unions and a strong FTC and fighting excess prices, versus free-for-all deregulation?

It wasn't the policies. It was the insufficient outreach. And of course too many people in leadership not willing to push back, but that's not the root cause

Still relevant. Current plans involve stuff like removing pretty much all social security, defunding research, potentially even banning vaccines (!)
