If Bernie or AOC were billionaires, this would matter.
It's not going to matter anywhere but in local politics, but for the locals that manage to elect actual progressives, I envy you.

Watched it. The big takeaway for me came with this moment: the crowd starts chanting "Bernie! Bernie!" and Bernie stops them and says "NO! Not Bernie! I got bad news for you-- It's you!"
He's trying to get progressive people to run for office, any office, every office, wherever they can. I think it's probably the best possible play at the moment.

The Party for Socialism and Liberation is starting to grow so you'll see it soon enough.
