If Sanders made a third party nobody would ever shut the fuck up about stealing votes from Democrats and putting Republicans in power forever.

Yes. And if we had started on this project in the aftermath of 2016, we'd have a viable third party.

I wish it happened around W's terms when the tea party formed to pull votes from Republicans. The Tea Party jumped back into the GOP and shoved them hard right and whatever left wing party could have pushed the democrats left.
