No such thing.

The tea party was just billionaires covered in AstroTurf. They bought the Republican party. It's asymmetrical warfare, because the left doesn't have billionaires that profit from our policy goals.

Not to be a doomer, I do think Democrats can be pulled left (kicking and screaming) but I'm not sure how though.

    Tea party was partially real. But it was basically petite bourgeois: car dealership owners and the like. This was also the main component of Jan 6th. These people aren't a huge constituency but there are a lot more of them than billionaires.
