What? Bill Clinton is more responsible than anyone but maybe Reagan for the gutting of the middle class. The Clinton's set us on this path. Hillary's only real track record is on foreign policy, and her positions there reflect the absolute worst aspects of American arrogance and interventionism.

The Clinton's and the rest of the Democratic establishment are responsible for destroying the underlying social fabric that would have made any of what you want possible. They are also diametrically opposed to a "fair" primary. Democrats have near 100% control over their own primary process, and the whole thing is rigged to maximize their ability to manipulate voters through their domination of media.

The manipulation of the media is true for Republicans as well

The good news is that people are (hopefully) getting sick and tired of it all

Pretty much everything wrong with Democrats is as bad or worse with Republicans. On the other hand, the Republican establishment did not want Trump to be nominated in 2016 any more than the Democrats wanted Sanders. It's up for debate if they were less heavy handed in manipulating the process, or if they were just more incompetent.
