Democrats on board to roll back banking regulations- again

[Fogdog]

Because of his support for the Dodd-Frank repeal and the watering down of the CFPB, I will not cast a vote for Senator Bennett (D-CO). Ever again.

Instead, I will look for and support any Progressive candidate who primaries him.

So, a question regarding the Colorado primary system. There are caucuses AND a primary election in June. What is done in the caucus and what is the primary for?

The caucus was to elect delegates for the governor's race this year. No other races were included. In presidential years, the Democratic party presidential delegates are chosen.

In the primary I'm not sure what happens yet. @UncleBuck would know.

I don't profess to be a knowledgeable apparatchik as yet.

I did dig into the issue a bit deeper and sure enough, the "tax cut for the wealthy" that article talked about was propaganda bs. The issue was created by Republicans in Washington when they capped deductions as a part of the tax bill/tax cut for the wealthy they passed in late December. Democrats are serving constituents and communities who are hit by those caps. This isn't some tax cut for the wealthy. It's a response to help constituents harmed by Republican backstabbing of states with a high cost of living. It's a very Democratic thing to do and I'm proud to read that Democrats are responding at the state level to help those harmed by the venal GOP Congress.

Very common propaganda tool of fascism is to claim the "other" is doing what the fasicists are doing. @ttystikk is a useful idiot to the fascists in Washington by repeating their propaganda bullshit.

Trump loves the uneducated.

And the Democrats just couldn't help themselves; they just had to support it.

Of course it had nothing to do with all the money they got from banking interests.

Pay no attention to Sen Micheal Bennett's (D-CO) THREE MILLION DOLLARS in campaign contributions from the banksters...
