The Progressive Hippocratic Oath: On Not Working With Trump To Do Harm
The Progressive Hippocratic Oath: On Not Working With Trump To Do Harm
Some Democrats are suggesting working with Republicans to get things done, one poster from Democratic Underground posted what we at the Thom Hartmann Program are calling the "Progressive Hippocratic Oath" which lists out where progressives are not working with Republicans, the Trump administration or anyone else; these include working to lessen the rights of African Americans, the LGBT population, to give banks more profit at the expense of the people, in short, progressives are not willing to work with anyone to do any harm. In the age where our political divide is often talked about needing to be bridged, do you agree with this list or do you want to walk across the aisle?
