Play all the word games you want. Your list was nothing more than the reheated sardine sandwich known as Marxism with the add of bad mayonaise on the top.
You're entitled to think that all Democratic ideas are Marxist. It's not true, of course - actual Marxism requires something significantly more than, say, I think we should have the same type of social safety net and labor laws as most countries in Europe. But even if you think that, it doesn't mean that Democrats don't have ideas. It's just you decided long ago that ideas that liberals and progressives are advocating for are bad. "Sardine sandwiches." It's far more correct to say, "I disagree with Democrats' ideas" than "Democrats have no ideas."
You *rarely* see any "I think we should do Policy X" posts from that crowd. What you see instead is "Trump did a thing and I hate the thing".
Really? Not one person on this board has ever advocated for more progressive taxation, or increased financial regulation, or any actions to fight climate change, or any type of health care policy (like Medicare for All or restricting health insurance company profits)? No one's ever advocated any type of gun regulation, or revising the electoral college, or efforts to prevent voter intimidation? No one ever suggesting a path to citizenship for DREAMERs or other immigrants?
I sort of get where you're coming from, because Trump's superpower is to overwhelm the attention economy - he does a dozen super-high-profile, precedent-breaking things every day before breakfast, so that nearly all the time the conversation of the day is about him and what he's done. But I think that's causing you to forget that for years and years when he wasn't President, people have been arguing with you on this board (and the predecessor) about fundamental differences in policy perspectives.
