With racism as the driving force of their populism, how/why should democrats compete for the audience? Xenophobia and white nationalism is what they want. Are you saying Democrats failed to meet the moment and win the crowd?

Dems didn’t “refuse.” They methodically crushed an enlightened populism in 2016 by cynically seeking to reseat the “Clinton dynasty” to follow the “Obama Politics As Usual Presidency” @BarackObama “don’t rock the boat” or “derail the dirty money train” w people power, peace, UHC

Yeah if only the Dems ran on an antivaxx and a "mental illness isn't real" platform like you. So enlightened.

Marianne, I love you, but don't you get it? Democrats have zero interest in creating an enlightened anything. It's a one party state with two wings and both love obscene inequality and both hate progressive rabble rousers like you!!

Well they robbed Bernie of it in 2016 to be honest with you.
