To win back support, the Democratic candidate must offer a positive and coherent vision centered on care and progressive policies, rather than relying solely on anti-Trump rhetoric.

If progressives want the government/society/the overton window to progress, then they have to vote for Dems and give them consistent and overwhelming victories. That’s about it.
They didn’t show up for Obama after he passed the most progressive healthcare bill in his first 2 years. Yeah that’s not a thing to be proud of. What did that get them? Drumroll please, it got them 6 years of Obama not being able to do anything else. Way to take anything else progressive Obama may have done and flush it down the toilet! And what else did it get them? Drumroll please, a mostly center Hilary who knew they didn’t show up. And what else did it get them? Trump. Yeah. And what else did it get them? A center Biden. Way to own yourself progressives. Like that the biggest self own in history. And you wonder why the Dems go the center to find votes? lol. This is why I said: If progressives want the government/society/the overton window to progress, then they have to vote for Dems and give them consistent and overwhelming victories.
Agree to disagree? I’m going to take that mean you now understand the history that I laid out and why they keep going to the center to find votes. Because left voters never show up.
You can’t play mexican standoff and expect to win. Dems will just go after voters that actually show up.
