Our Democrats would never let him win, and that's before you even get to the Republicans. Republican heads might actually explode if we elected a progressive who dared to call themselves a Democratic Socialist.

Meanwhile, Democrats are also crushed under the thumb of all the money big business pours into ~~bribery~~ lobbying, and they have already made it clear twice that they won't let him get on the ballot.

We'll never get progressive policies or a progressive president unless the progressives infiltrate D to the extent maga has infiltrated R.
