OK, great. He won't. The President can't do much about them. He can avoid making things worse but that's hopefully a given for the next Democratic President.

But the next Democratic President won't be able to do much, either........so unless we're willing to do what Trump did (and does) which is to promise what we can't deliver it doesn't seem like a winning message.

Need to think bigger.
