The Vermont senator, who has long had a tense relationship with the Democratic Party, suggested in an interview that more progressives should join him in running as independents.
Fuck yeah, there it is. Let’s go. New party. This one’s dead. November was the DNC’s last chance. Time for a new party. DNC leadership and political consultants aren’t allowed anywhere near this one.
The decision needs to be made right now, because there are always going to be those that encourage voting 3rd party like 3 months before the election even though none of the groundwork has been done for the previous 4 years.
If the work is started now it’s a lot better then 3 months before the election where it really just syphons votes away from at least preventing Republicans from winning.
Fuck it. Look where we’re at now, the only safe bet is that the Democrats will not change and this cycle will continue indefinitely until something else takes over.
Fwiw, that was my logic up until the election. I fully admit I was wrong. The DNC is simply not capable of mounting a winning campaign in this context. It has atrophied into an unrecoverable state. Refactoring is not going to be useful. A new project is the best way forward.

I love it but it’s real risky
Can it get any worse?

How would it be worse than the current situation?
