Summary
Following Donald Trump’s election win, Sen. Bernie Sanders’ approach to economic populism is being highlighted as a possible path forward for Democrats to regain working-class support.
Sanders’ longstanding message, which targets billionaires, corporate corruption, and economic inequality, offers a clear counter-narrative to Trump’s scapegoating of marginalized groups.
His approach appeals to voters feeling economically alienated, much like Trump’s message did in this election.
Democrats are urged to embrace Sanders’ style of anti-establishment, class-focused politics to rebuild trust with working-class voters, prioritize new leadership, and counter Republican extremism effectively.
Whatever lol. We’re not functionally going to even have a two-party state for the rest of my lifetime, if ever. This country never was for the people and it’s a little fucking late to try now.
Yes, we have one party here. But so does America. Except, with typical extravagance, they have two of them!

The US has always had two parties that only serve capital and it’s interests.
Dems Should Steal It Back.
Or you know, Bernie should just have it and everyone should stop stealing it. I mean I’m as liberal as they come, but c’mon Democrats, stop stealing Bernie’s shit and leaving him behind and just listen to what Senator Sanders is telling you will actually win Americans.
I mean, I get it, I’m bummed about Trump, but shit, PLEASE LEARN SOMETHING THIS CYCLE DNC!! I mean there’s a ton of reasons for why Trump won, but holy fuck, Democrats if you could run something just few nanometers short of the current level of insipid political rhetoric, that would be amazing.
I’ll still vote Democrat on the mid term, but c’mon drink a Red Bull or something.
They can’t and won’t learn. They’d rather have a fake controllable populist on the right than a progressive on the left they can’t control. The DNC has been serving nothing but corporate neocons since Clinton. They don’t fuckin learn. They need to be thoroughly ripped apart before things will get better.
Too little, too fucking late. The courts are gone for at least a generation, if the US survives. Positive political change is no longer possible thanks to those who gullible ~15mil.
To what end? It won’t change a Trump voter’s mind. It won’t keep a Democrat voting blue. We need to drop the territorial pissing and get back to actual fucking politics. Maybe we could win something if we fucking did anything. But no, that’s a good idea, we’ll just keep fighting pointless battles with the MAGA crowd, I’m sure that will pay off in dividends.
