Genuinely curious what people want the Democrats to specifically do right now, apart from vague calls of "something" and "more" and "better." At least on a federal level, aren't they pretty much powerless at this point? What even can they do?

step one should be a change of leadership.

Mega donors can't eat their money. The working class WILL get behind a strike, if they see support from the electeds.

What will the working class eat while they aren't getting paid during the strike?

We already produce the food.... oligarchs don't.

We can seize the means of production.
