Dear Editor,

The Democratic Party’s platform is available online. It is a compendium of what the party hopes to accomplish in the next four years.

The chapter on the economy talks about workers’ rights, reforming the tax code, curbing Wall Street shenanigans and job creation.

In all there are 10 chapters, including sections on health care, the criminal justice system, immigration, global climate change, and other important issues that have not been addressed in the past four years.

There is nothing in the entire platform about turning the U.S. socialist, or defunding the police, or support for Antifa.

If you would like to compare the Democrat platform to the Republican platform, you cant. The Republicans didn’t write one. They have no plan for the next four years except to blindly follow Trump.
