      They couldn’t because the Biden team wanted to keep up the lie that everything was okay for everyday American families. Harris knew she couldn’t say that because it was bullshit and she couldn’t say that the economy sucked or else she would look like she was backstabbing Biden. Harris’ indecisiveness on the issue tanked her campaign.

    The DNC in general has had an issue listening to (what used to be considered) its base for at least 10 years now, probably longer. Constant movement to the “middle” to woo independents means the current Democratic party is far, far to the right of where it should be.

    Progressives in America truly have no party. Are they a large voting block? We’ll never know.
