OF course the trumpers won't like it: this program brings people together, shows them how much they all have in common with each other, how working together will increase our community nationwide.

I've heard Pete talk about community as something that we as a nation have lost. This is at least party because people no longer spend their lives working in one place for one company. We've been scattered as the big bosses have looked for ways to cut costs and to increase their take.

As a result, many people feel unmoored, with a lack of community increasing their sense of isolation. Pete's program would help wipe out feelings of isolation as it helps folks work for the common good. They would be more likely to feel as though they're part of something bigger than themselves. The country would benefit.
