Of course the Republicans will say insane stuff about any Democrat, and will call them all socialists, but it's different when the candidate themself self-identifies as such!
Quote: The biggest lesson we're trying to get across here is "reaching across the aisle" is a failed strategy, and it will fail again if we try it again. The ONLY method that will work is simply EMBRACING progressive policies, honestly and openly saying that IS what we intend to do, and trying to convince as many voters as possible that this is the right course of action. That's it. Not compromising- which doesn't inspire people. Not pretending we're something we're not, which modern voters, even the Trump cult, see RIGHT through now. No, this is now a battle of extreme ideologies. Pick a side.Going too far left in response will lead to a result like Corbyn 2019 in the UK.
