The DNC would rather lose with a neoliberal than win with a progressive. If they want to get there shit together they have to win with the working class and ordinary people.
They can't be elitist centrists. They'll lose every election if they do. The future is now old man
If they go further left they lose every moderate or right leaning Democratic voter don't they? Why would you want your voter base to get smaller
So is it that leftists are too small a group to be worth making political concessions to, or are they a large enough group to have an effect on elections?
Why do Democrats feel entitled to the support of the left when they don't offer anything to the left?
That's the problem they're both. They're that kick you always need to keep the right wing nuts at bay. But this election the American far left became nuts too and lost their common sense. Anyways enjoy your king
I'm not really a fan of my king, the queen before him was far more likeable.
Pithy remarks aside, I don't see how the far left can be blamed for Harris losing given the pretty sizable margin by which she lost. And why would leftists be motivated to vote for a party that not only doesn't offer them anything in terms of policy, but actively courts so called 'moderate' Republicans?
