Obama and Clinton both were not at the top of the party apparatus at the time of their first runs. Compare to Gore, Harris, and the other Clinton in 2016. I think the DNC clearly needs to step back and let the party make its own choice.

Not just FDIC though, in 2008 and again today the Fed is making clear that their backstop is bigger than just FDIC. it can’t be any bigger than the debt limit so I find it sobering to have this discussion while we’re heading towards that cliff.
