    There is a reason the main Democratic leadership is not pushing a more left leaning agenda, they would lose. If the left got a foothold on the national conversation like maga did then the middle of the road Democrats fear they will go the way of the middle of the road Republicans and that is out of power.

      Well, they just lost by moving right.

        Yes they did but they didn’t lose control of their narrative which is weak and feckless.

        “give me more money and keep me in power and I promise to not do much.” and “don’t look left, they are crazy!”

          Weak and feckless is their brand.
