I believe Politico privately considers "No Labels" to be a spoiler operation designed to put Trump back in the White House. But like other willfully blind journalism organizations, it treats the group as "centrist" with honest motivations.

It's likely that some supporters do honestly believe they're helping to improve politics. But they are the Jill Stein voters of 2024 and should be called out as such.

The problem with this demonizing of any alternative choices beyond forced wealth serving establishment is that it's a vicious cycle giving poorly representative candidates. 2020 saw the disgusting organized crush of front runner populist Sanders. Does anyone really want Harris after Biden?
This is what you're pushing. Who deserves to be sneered at on a "Jill Stein voters" level?

Much simpler. Bring back a real progressive tax structure. 90% for top rate. Too much money to fight the BS wave.
Look at the Dem establishment "Firewall." Bought and paid for.
Bidenomics.
