To me it seems like at least as much work to move the Democratic Party to the left as it would be to just create a new party. The creation of an entirely new political apparatus versus replacing an existing system which is designed to prevent exactly that kind of change.
We know revolutionary political change is possible in the US, Trumpism is unfortunately evidence of it. That shit started out as a meme and now it's the de facto ideology of the American imperialist establishment. The question is, is this only possible from the right? Does the left need to do to the Democrats what the Trumpists did to the Republicans, and if so, how?
