I don’t think a lot of people offline think so much in red/blue and left/right. A working people’s party could peel voters from both parties, and bring in new voters. Starting right away I think a lot of wins could be made in the midterms at least locally if not nationally - maybe not with majorities but pluralities.

Some people say… Dems are generally shit but they have definitely moved left over the last decade. A lot of new people have run and while it isn’t a sure thing by any stretch, people have been able to and have the chance to continue to move the party and also just straight up infiltrate it to push it left. Whereas the repubs have been in full sprint to the right.
