I keep repeating myself.
Bernie, AOC, Zohran Mamdani... conservatives shouldn't be shocked by their popularity, they should be thankful.
Because electing popular lefty politicians through the system and working with the system to change the system is a compromise.
The working class has other means to defend itself from the overreach of the bourgeoisie inherent in the system, and everyone who wants to hold onto the current system should be extremely thankful that the working class doesn't simply decide to violently overthrow it.
They are aware of this. They are very careful to just push that line ever so slightly, over time. Trump might be testing how quickly they can push it.
