An alternative "glass half full" possibility is that a subset of mainstream populists like Warren will become radicalized if/when a strong Left emerges. Do you have a historical or sociological argument for your pessimistic view? Any strong Left has to include a large portion of the population who are currently registered Democrats and maybe Warren-supporters. How are you going to do that if you write them off at the outset as irredeemable Enemies? > Discussions of what Congress or the President or The Court or the DP > "should" do can be entertaining but merely as chit-chat. > Did anyone propose a discussion like this? You are constructing a ridiculous strawman here. -raghu.
