I'd love if he does so many great things we can tip the "socialism is bad" narrative to our favor. Not that I'm pushing socialism as a system, but our side has never properly challenged the trickle down bullshit the repubs have been pushing for over 40 years now. Why shouldn't our tax dollars make our lives easier?
