The Democratic party has spent the last 10 years conditioning the public to think Trump is the only problem rather than a symptom of our decaying capitalist system because their party serves capitalism too

To summarize:

  • capitalism always results in the accumulation of wealth in a minority of hands through monopolies and oligopolies.
  • once wealth accumulation occurs that minority will always utilize their wealth to manipulate the systems which control all our lives into their favor.
  • regulation can be used to redistribute wealth, but is always going to be dismantled eventually through propaganda, lobbying, and bribery. Once dismantled, we're back at square one.
  • therefore, capitalism is an irrideemable system which will always reach a failure state.

This is arguable, and honestly this exact bullet point can be made for virtually any political system, but it's most likely what OP's on about.
