Sage Lewis identifies as a Democrat, but he is highly critical of his own party. He describes himself as a "Populist Democrat," prioritizing the needs of people over environmental and animal issues. He is particularly concerned with issues such as unaffordable housing, the criminalization of addiction and homelessness, and systemic racism and classism.
Lewis is disillusioned with the Democratic Party's focus on issues that he feels neglect the immediate needs of low-income and Black communities. He believes that both major political parties in the United States are part of a corrupt system that serves the interests of the powerful rather than the people.
Additionally, Lewis criticizes the divisive nature of American politics, arguing that both the left and the right are manipulated to fight each other instead of addressing the real issues perpetuated by the ruling class and corporate interests.
Overall, his political beliefs are rooted in a desire to address systemic inequalities and to focus on the immediate needs of marginalized communities, while also being highly skeptical of party politics and the existing political system.
