They need to organized this momentum into a proper party, maybe call it the labor party or the progress party. But most importantly they need to not be scared to use actural leftist rhetoric and appeal to class conscious workers.
Disagree. There are a huge number of republican working class that need representation, and who are not the enemy.
The anti-1% party is a much more viable proposition than going left vs right.
The Democrats tried that, they tried appealing to the mythical "centrist conservative" and look where that got them, it has been proven to be a failing strategy. We dont need another "bipartisan" Democrat-like party, we need a workers party.
I mean, I would love that, but if we start running a third party in national elections against the Democrats and Republicans from the left, the Republicans will win even more. If we can't get FPTP changed I'm afraid the only option I can see is to destroy and rebuild the Democrats.
Well I guess there's a possibility that when Trump dies the Republicans implode. I'd love to see it but their voters always toe the line. I think this time it will be whoever right wing media decides are the new bosses.
