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.
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.
I really don’t think the DNC should be considered a viable party anymore. I’m betting Sanders and other progressives are working on the foundations of a new one. If they are, and it works, I’m going to register for a political affiliation for the first time in almost a decade and a half.
“Take America back again” is a nice play on this sentiment.
