If Dems want any chance of winning in 2026 (midterms), assuming we still have an election, there is only one path forward, and that is things that matter to Americans.
Economic issues that Sanders was successfully campaigning on in 2016 when he was thwarted in the primary. It’s not important to fight over what happened that year, but his platform is 100% the way forward to progress.
I believe we need more of a return to Marxism, personally, as his predictions and analysis are only proven more correct with the passage of time and the addition of new data points. That’s why I made an Introduction to Marxism reading list, if anyone wants to take a look.
I agree that Sanders would have won 2016, 2020, and 2024 if he could only run in 2020. However, he hasn’t been allowed to run, rather, the DNC ran rightward despite polling showing this to be a mistake. This is because the DNC is a business that sells policy to Capitalists, not a party run for the working class. Any third party created by Sanders would face the same opposition the Greens and PSL do by liberals, which is why it’s high-time people look towards Marxism.
