CommentJune 17, 2025

(FILES) US Senator Bernie Sanders, Independent from Vermont, and US Representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Democrat of New York, speak to supporters during the "Fighting Oligarchy: Where We Go From Here" rally at Civic Center Park in Denver, Colorado on March 21, 2025. As he marks 100 days in office, much ink will be spilt on Donald Trump's divisive transformation of the US government, but Democrats are themelves under scrutiny over missteps in opposing his blitz of reforms. In AFP interviews, multiple political analysts said Democrats have become a rudderless, divided party struggling to decide what it stands for. Rare glimpses of a fightback have included victory in a Wisconsin Supreme Court race, and a hugely popular "Fighting Oligarchy" tour by progressive lawmakers Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
