    Not sure how you envision this. It’s not a winning strategy to have a third party run for election. The best outcome by far is if AOC is the Democratic presidential candidate in 2028.

      Apparently it’s not a winning strategy to have Democrats run for elections either, so what’s there to lose?

      Lincoln was a Whig before a ‘third’ party came along. The calls for a new party aren’t necessarily to form a third party. They are calls to form a party in power.

      You think the DNC would let AOC anywhere near candidacy? They torpedoed Bernie. They seem quite content with their failing platform.
