    But the DNC would rather hand their country to the fascists than allow progressive ideas to gain traction.

      If you read that article, all of those policies are economic policies that Harris was pushing. Punishing price gouging, lowering rent and mortgages costs by incentivizing building and banning price fixing algorithms, etc.

      Those races either had more effective communicators, or shittier opponents. They were democratic candidates that ran on the Democratic Party’s policies.

      There’s no pressure on them to support progressive policies in a 2 party system. All they have to do is wait until Trump’s administration shits the bed and they’ll win again.
