Sure, let's rely on squeezing money from the people least able to afford it, because by god, we're gonna run this place on the cheap instead of taking advantage of the free money being handed to us by idiots.
The only idiots are the people who think oligarch money is a gift rather than an investment to ensure that the party remains a watchdog of capital.

TPP isn't poo poo and latching onto it as a nefarious gambit by Haim Saban and George Soros to drain the blood of the poor is one of the many reasons why Bernie diehards can't be trusted with power.

And yet only the mighty consider free trade an unequivocal good.

Money doesn't allow people to mind-control you, moron.
Good thing there are no other ways to manipulate things and people besides physical coercion and telepathy.

Actually, the really rich don't like free trade as such, preferring trade rigged in their favor. It's academics who push for free trade as such.
Free trade is rigged in their favor.

Bullshit. The people being complained about expect to have everything they want, the way they want it and want it now. All without any understanding that poo poo takes time and effort and that not every political position is capable of enacting the entire package.

Oh, and if there isn't a president on the ballot then forget about bothering to vote. Voting is for leap years only.

The people being complained about are a strawman built by centrists whenever people complain that poo poo like the ACA didn't go far enough, and then they wonder why they have trouble getting people who would like the dems to move beyond the vaguely tolerable to the polls without some sort of life threatening opponent on the other side.
