I am often critical of leftists, but I do think they are correct that a class/economics-focused message is a better response to Trump than the hawkish Cold War bromides Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin delivered in response to his speech on Tuesday. At the same time, Bernie is ultimately not the ideal messenger for the national party. The public's appetite for a fairer economy where they're not at the mercy of unscrupulous corporate actors does not necessarily mean they have an appetite for Bernie's more sweeping vision for reform. https://x.com/jacobin/status/1897367238518485276

I don't think attacking billionaires resonates with the majority of the electorate. I think targeting specific billionaires like Musk/Bezos could be effective but alienating people like Cuban only hurts the party imo. What they really need is a unified front, everyone to fall in line like the Rs did with Trump.
