Lots of people are trying but it’s not so easy to do. Our voting system is geared to only allow two parties and any actual third party that starts to gain traction gets shut down by the people with money and existing power. I don’t think it’s strictly impossible but I also don’t think we can realistically pull it off. We need a solution outside the existing hierarchy imo
Starting a new party is going to require current elected Democrats to leave the party and start a new one. It probably can’t be done by just “lots of people” and has to be done with people who have serious clout.
Start a new Party jfc

Why would people who have power and wealth under the current system try to change it?
Well supposedly some of them are “progressives” and want to actually enact progressive change in politics.

Supposedly.
