"Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer D-N.Y., discussed the new economic agenda for the Democratic Party moving forward, and said on Sunday that a single-payer health care system is an option that’s on the table.
Featured on ABC’s “This Week,” Schumer was asked about a recent poll which showed that 52 percent of Americans felt that the Democratic Party only stands in opposition to President Donald Trump, rather than having an independent identity with a clear message. When asked why Americans don’t know what the Democrats stand for, Schumer said some of the responsibility falls on the party.
“Well, it is, in part, our fault. When you lose an election with someone who has, say, 40 percent popularity, you look in the mirror and say what did we do wrong?” Schumer said. “And the number one thing that we did wrong is we didn’t have — we didn’t tell people what we stood for. Even today, as your poll showed, they know we’re standing up to Trump. They like that. But they want to know what to you stand for?””*
