The “Fighting Oligarchy Tour” rallies headlined by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez can become something much bigger — if Bernie and AOC direct their rally attendees into sustained organizing efforts against Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
Agreed. And now is the time to try that. The Democrat party is infused with corruption and incompetence. From Schumer’s spinelessness, to Fetterman’s and Newsom’s profound lack of integrity.
There needs to be a genuine grassroots movement with real momentum to push back hard against the insanity of the Republicans.
This is what I’ve been saying. Where did playing along with the establishment get people like Bernie & AOC? Democratic seniority has no respect for them. If they had put their own interests & that of donors above the American people, then they could have easily gotten further ahead. They end up helping Democratic leadership more than anything, while that leadership would turn on them in a heartbeat if they dared to question their roles. I’m sure by next election though they’ll be telling them they must fall into line again & back their corporate NPC. Unfortunately, they have shown they’ll fall into line now. They better start explaining how Biden, Kamala, Schumer, Pelosi & others are why we are where we’re at now.
You cannot fight the system that allowed this to happen from within.
They will inevitably need to leave the party in order to put their support behind real resistance.

Why? Wouldn’t it be harder to get enough votes to win general elections as third parties than to win primaries?
Depends on whether democrats decide to hold honest primaries. Or primaries at all.
You’re never going to convince the 30% of Americans that self identify as Democrats to change. Same for the 30% of Republicans.
You either use the Dems as a tool, or you split the party and fail. Look at the tea party for an example.
