How America came apart

Van Jones explains that both Parties colluded on trade deals that decimated our industrial base, as well as Wall Street deregulation that destroyed our financial system. Both supported privatizing prisons which just exacerbated the problem and both supported endless war that killed our and other populations and enriched the war machine. Hence the rebellions in both Parties via Sanders and Dump, the former promoting that we support each other, the latter that we turn on each other. The former makes America great again, the latter tears it apart.

He's also critical of the elitist Democrats who have abandoned the white working class. They've turned to elite professionals for their money and support and no longer promote the working class as did Sanders. And it's not only Sander's message framing but his history of sincerity and authenticity of fighting for the working class that is needed to bring those oppressed white working class back into the progressive fold instead of the false profit Dump.
