Even then you can’t present yourself as an alternative as long as you compromise with Democrat. How it has been done in France is a new party was created that refuse any compromise, they started with ridiculous number but kept growing election on election as the traditionnal left kept compromising each time they won. And now 20 years later the tables have turned and the old left party is basically dead on presidential election

In an alternate reality this guy didn’t went through Democrats Primary but run on his own, creating his own political party and team and in the long run I’m sure it would have actually paid off. Even if he would not have won any election for years this is about being able to share your narrative free of any outside influence.
