Its time to get down and dirty. Secretly recruit unknown candidates in blue states and groom them to learn prog talking points. Have them run as democrats and win, then switch parties

Mass suicide of progressives isn’t necessarily a good look for the country though.

It's been done. In 2011 in Wisconsin and Jill Stein in 2016, for two examples.

Local judge on Long Island tried to get the Democratic nomination in the September primary. Didn't work.

Jill Stein

Is an actual progressive, unlike the corporatist, warmongering Democrat you supported in 2016. Clinton loves her some mass incarceration, state surveillance and perpetual war to benefit the 1%. Calling Stein a fake progressive shows just how out of touch y'all really are.

Run them as independents and find people like Cortez and Bernie and split the Democratic vote up in Senate and Congress and Governors....R's win then....very expensive but it would work

I'll bet Sinema supports Trump's policies and nominations as good or better than Flake.

I don't think it would work. Once they get in with the libs, even undercover, they'll become corrupt as soon as they see how much better the DNC cash is.

See net worth of Clinton's, Sanders, Obamas, Mad Maxine, Booker, before and after political office, for reference.
