The progressives need to start attacking the mainstream Democrats without mercy. Stop with the "please can we exist" poo poo. They will never let you exist, their owners wont allow it.

You need people willing to fight, who are willing to tell the DNC to eat poo poo. Maybe that means being forever marginalized, ok, that is still better than surrendering, cooperating, and getting nothing in return.

This, but also attacking Republicans without mercy. Politicians and supporters both.

Hostile party takeovers have happened in the past. American leftists just need to stop being so drat nice. They have a lovely situation, obvious enemy at high and low, ideas with popular support, demographics, etc. on their side. Stop playing with the old rules. Be as big of a dick as Trump, only to people who actually deserve it and with actual eloquence. Stop making ads where you promise things and start making ads where you attack things. AOC on social media is a pretty good example, although she is still being too nice.
