They need to organized this momentum into a proper party, maybe call it the labor party or the progress party. But most importantly they need to not be scared to use actural leftist rhetoric and appeal to class conscious workers.
Disagree. There are a huge number of republican working class that need representation, and who are not the enemy.
The anti-1% party is a much more viable proposition than going left vs right.
Show me the conservative critique of billionaires. I know how that works on the left, but the right is about preserving power structures
billionaires Don't Share Our Values™️
QED
Unless one of your values is to take wealth from those that don't share your values, this is not a critique that will lead to meaningful corrections. I guess that could be a conservative value, but now you're just doing identity politics.
There are a few Republican representatives that claim to be pro-union, which has gotten them into office. I don't know how much they can do when both parties have been generally anti-union.
