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.
Can we stop stealing things from Bernie and instead make him president
Too late for him now. He could assemble progressives under him tho, make a “new” party that caucuses with the dems, like Bernie has done forever, and as they build up members that get elected they will slowly get more power and influence over the dems hopefully pushing them left. Look at the “Freedom Caucus” how they were able to cause so much chaos with 10 or so members, imagine that being used for good instead. Just a thought.
Oh, Bernie should have done this in '16
