Spiraling wealth inequality that even the Democrats refused to acknowledge or fix, let alone the Republicans.

Democrats tried to fix it a bunch of times. Citizens United kept lobbying alive, Public Option healthcare (which would have made it almost imposible for private healthcare to compete) lost by 1 independent senator, Republicans keep getting elected to write the tax laws as they expire.

It's not from lack of trying by the DNC.
