I think the only way we're going to get rid of Trump is if progressives, leftists & independents are fired up to elect Biden for the EXPRESS PURPOSE of giving him hell the entire time he's in office. Right now all I see from them is disgust with the establishment. 1/

Further: the DNC has calculated that they can get disgruntled Republicans to vote for Biden. They're putting a lot of money and messaging into that.

So: progressives, leftists, independents-- here is the battleground... 2/

There is a war right now for who has influence in a Biden administration, (should he win) between Republicans "fed up" with Trump or the left.

If progressives bow out of this fight completely out of disgust, they will cede ground to the Republicans 3/

and instead of being able to push Biden to the left, the Republicans will own him completely and the Democratic party will move even further to the right.

Is that what you want? 4/

Some strategic moves re: left policy

Unlike Hillary, Biden agreed to 2750 progressive policies written by AOC, Karen Bass, Stephanie Kelton & Bernie Sanders
$15/hour minimum wage
Free public college
Free HBCU tuition
Student loan forgiveness
Deportation moratorium 5/

TRANSPARENCY FOR ICE
$2 trillion dollar climate plan 6/

If Dems take the Senate Bernie automatically becomes Budget Chair and gets to WRITE THE BUDGET 7/

People will say "oh haha Schumer would never let Bernie be in charge," but it goes by SENIORITY 8/8
