At least they have a proper left.... We could use a lot more of this in the US.

Greens do not hold any political function AFAIK (edit: they still have a few senators). In the past few elections they usually gained only around 3 % of votes.

Our 'proper' left parties that have some power are those old-school leftist parties that are pro-Russian. The irony is that they are usually quite fond of Trump.

Discourse is a political function.

And I sincerely wish our Green Party had ever gotten 3%.

I’m not sure what you consider left but I’d hazard a guess we disagree based on your comment.
