    So we should vote for them because they’re out of touch with so much of the country that they’re ineffective?

      If you want the Dems to move left, you do that by giving them consistent and overwhelming victories. Not 4 years out of the last 24 years. Not 6 years out of the last 44 fucking years. I just went through the chronology with somebody else in this exact chain, take a look. https://lemmy.world/comment/10617871

        You still haven’t said anything to explain this theory of them moving left if the left votes for them no matter what. Why would they worry about satisfying a voting block that automatically votes for them?

          Lol yes I did. I see you didn’t read what I linked. Every now and then they try to move left, and whenever they do they lose the election. So guess what? Next election they move to the center to find voters. So guess what you can do? Make Dems win consistently and overwhelmingly so they don’t lose when they go left.

          They’ve lost 20 years out of the last 24 years, and you’re surprised they go to the center to find votes? Lol.

            You brought up 2 centrist politicians as examples of moving left. That’s not an argument.
