        I think this is the best take.

        The national Democratic party is a collection of thousands of smaller local Democratic parties. We’ve abandoned the local parties, allowing the corporate rot to take over the national party. We don’t need a new 3rd party, we need to take control of the local Democratic parties which already have the infrastructure in place to fund raise and run campaigns.

          Good luck if you get three leftists in a room together they have six different ideas on how to get things done and will argue to the death about the best way instead of doing anything.

          Wow, the left take over the Democratic Party??? Genius! I wonder why nobody ever thought of that before…

          Huh. Seems like a crazy thing to overlook, right?

      Yeah here in Ohio we had multiple state referendums where things like abortion and recreational marijuana were overwhelming approved by the voters. So the Democrats proceeded to say nothing anout how they were going to protect those objectively popular issues and instead ran a bunch of ads about how they are going to work with Trump on securing the border, then were shocked that they all got BTFOed in November.
