Who do you think would do well? Hint, it begins with a D Expand In the short term, yes. But it doesn't take long for realignments to happen. In my UK example, the Social Democratic Party started in 1981. The Tories, and then later the Labor Party under Tony Blair had basically co-opted their program and Thatcherism vs. Hard Socialism was essentially done by the end of the decade. It seems like a long time, but it'll be a longer time if we become a country where it's Trump and the Trumpkins vs. AOC and The Squad for the next several cycles.

Right now it’s all pretend. You have tons of unhappy trump and Bernie supporters. Except that the Democrats don’t represent a good part of their base neither. The same ***** that happened to the republicans will happen to the dems at one point. You can’t keep #### blocking Bernie. Expand Yeah, the Democrats are going to be forced to get progressive real soon, but AOC is too dumb to realize she doesn't have the votes for it yet. I do think the moderate Democrats will be somewhat open to change, just not as fast as the squad thinks. Overall I do like the idea of 3-4 parties with centrist and wingers, but for the love of God there has to be compromise. This all or nothing garbage sucks
