    The problem is the people running the DNC

    At some point, we’re going to have to make an actual left wing party. Because the only thing the national DNC cares about is money

    They don’t even know how to spend it effectively when they get it.

      Socialist Party of America, Socialist Alternative, The Communist Party of the USA, and plenty others have been trying to run left of the Democratic Party for a century, it won’t work in a FPTP voting system, converting the Democrats into a Socialist party would literally be easier.

      If you want a left wing party other than the Dems, you’re gonna have to change FPTP first.

        converting the Democrats into a Socialist party would literally be easier.

        They’re a private organization…

        They’ll keep doing whatever they want without changing as long as people keep voting for him.

        The only thing the DNC has that a different private party wouldn’t is momentum.

        If they just gonna keep following the rnc, we have no choice but acknowledging we were abandoned long ago already
