Mr. Reich is like the Colonel Klink of politics: If he tells you to cut the blue wire you should cut the red one. Do the opposite of what he suggests and you should be fine.

Donald Trump's strategy for keeping power is to build up his coalition of America's white working class and the nation's ownership class. It's a curious coalition, to say the least. It's a curious coalition? LOL. It's a coalition that probably comprises about 70% of the U.S. population.

Why do these idiots talk as if impeachment is a foregone conclusion? Don’t they realize how badly the Mueller fishing expedition is going for them?

Dont worry about the ignorant Twitter ruling by the so-called Judge. All President Trump has to do is IGNORE the so-called Judge and block whomever he WANTS. The so-called Judge has violated the separation-of-powers doctrine, and the impotent Judge can in no way enforce his so-called ruling anyway. PERIOD!

What in gods name does the Democrat Party have to offer the middle and working class?

A coalition of working people and business owners. How horrible.

Somebody should tell Robbie that it’s called “The American Coalition” and maybe...maybe he might get it.

Slavery reparations, transgenders in their daughter’s bathrooms, kneeling for the national anthem, coddling MS-13, more taxes and elitism.

I’m not saying that Reich is short, but I did see a sign at the amusement park that said, ‘Must be taller than Robert Reich to go on this ride.’

It just might create a permanent Republican majority around an axis of white traditional American (regardless of race) resentment and great wealth.Fixed it.

Yes, Trump is creating a “curious coalition” of ALL Americans who aspire to, and benefit from, Making America Great Again.
OK. Mr. Reich, the third, this MAGA idea really is a dastardly plot to dethrone the rightful heirs to being the slave-masters of America, which is obviously people like you.
I find it very curious how men like Reich casually reference impeachment as if they consider it a mere political maneuver. No need for a crime. No need for evidence of a crime. No need for a trial. It’s just a given that more Democrats in office will lead to an impeachment.
