Bernie would have been that person. I'm still upset about that.
I can't think of anyone aggressive enough for the future. AOC maybe?
AOC is the best bet.
But whoever it is, the focus needs to be on increasing turnout from the left and not attempting to steal Republican voters by moving the whole party right.
Republican voters will always say if Dems agree with them they'll vote D, but it's always a lie and they'll always vote R.
Just this way they still get what they want if they lose and they know it'll help the Republican win.
Either the people running the DNC are so stupid they still haven't noticed, or they're in on the grift. Considering the same billionaires/corps donate to both parties, I'm not really it out.
But regardless of why they're so bad at their job, we can't afford to keep letting them run the literal only other option to fascism.
As John Oliver just said (paraphrased, but around 10:30 of latest episode):
She can't have gone any further "center" and she performed horribly. Anyone saying we went to far left isn't paying attention to reality, they'll listening to billionaire's talking heads on the TV.
