I’d say at this point the left’s response, if they want to stop the decline of the country, is to abandon the Democratic party and form a new party that actually puts the needs of the 99% above the needs of the 1%.
Communism and Socialism have no chance in the US, but a social democrat is probably pretty close to what the majority of Americans want.
Of course, I’m not talking about a group that only surfaces once every four years. The presidency shouldn’t even be a thought. Instead, we need a progressive party, dedicated to people, and working at the local and state level to fix what we can there.

I agree. Would help if the party didn’t accept corporate money, like the Sander campaign before the DNC fucked him over.
