According to Mathjax:

First and foremost, the TeX input processor implements only the math-mode macros of TeX and LaTeX, not the text-mode macros. MathJax expects that you will use standard HTML tags to handle formatting the text of your page; it only handles the mathematics. So, for example, MathJax does not implement \emph or \begin{enumerate}...\end{enumerate} or other text-mode macros or environments. You must use HTML to handle such formatting tasks.
 
bummer...

\item is the perfect feature for so many math representations.

$$\text{Itemized List:} \\
\text{ }\cdot\text{Item 1} \\
\text{ }\cdot\text{Item 2} \\
\text{ }\cdot\text{Item 3}$$

Instead of \cdot you could also try \bullet (which is bolder):
$$\bullet\ \text{ Item 1} \\ \bullet\ \text{Item 2} \\ \bullet\ \text{Item 3}$$
