    Isn’t that what they tried with Bernie? How many times should Charlie Brown try to kick that football?

      It takes more than just Bernie and the Squad. They’re very much a step in the right direction, but the movement needs to be larger than that. Right now progressives don’t have enough seats in Parliament to be considered a serious threat. Change that, and we might start seeing serious progress. Until then, everyone should be working on the local and state level to push progressive politicians in office and most importantly working to keep regressives out.
