Ms. Harper argues that ‘Republicans shot down the bipartisan plan Biden and Suozzi endorsed’, because it’s a Democratic plan. I disagree. It’s because Trump said so. It’s not the same game as 2020. This time it’s democracy vs dictatorship, a very different ball game. It’s not left vs right. Democrats must campaign on what they have always stood for — the working class, the rural poor, the urban poor, woman, minorities and immigrants. And policies favoring health care, social security, civil and human rights. They must emphasize that this is not a left issue but an American issue.
