    Isn't this the Tulsi Gambit? Go around bashing your own party and hope the base Dem voter hates the Dems as much as you do?

    Alternatively, you can do the Steve Bullock dance and tell people that Democrats aren't Republican enough.

    There are so many Democrats who attack the party from the right that you quickly get called a Republican if you criticize the party at all.

      I think it wouldn't be what Tulsi was doing as much as establishing the left as a distinct force and creating a counter narrative in the wide swaths of the country the left currently has no presence outside of election season.

      In the absence of that Biden will shit the bed for 4 years and the republicans will simply say the left is the more extreme version of Biden. Nobody will care that some twitter accounts with hammers and sickles really hate Biden or something, if the left wants to be seen as opposition it has to be the people the left actually put in office.
