You realize all these democrat "leaders" either come from LA/ Bay Area or New York or like New England, right?
and a lot of them ain't even "progressive" like that.
Congressional Progressive Caucus - Wikipedia
This is what jackasses like @storyteller doesn't get because he lives under a brain rattling MTA line that roars past his window every 14 minutes.
AOC: NYC
Booker/Warren/Schumer: NYC
Ayanna Pressley: Boston
SF/LA: Barbara Lee, Maxine Waters, Pelosi, Katie Hunter, Ro Khanna.
I don't know if you can even include civil rights leaders either cause they're not THAT progressive like John Lewis or Clyburn, etc.
The midwest and south ain't electing progressive democrats bruh.
Then you've got a few spread out like Ilhan Omar or Rashida Tlaib in basically ethnic enclaves.
All of this "attack democrats" thing would only work if we had a parliament where actual parties would form and make coalition governments. We have a two party system because of how votes are counted. Even if we had ranked choice voting I wouldn't trip. Most places dont even have jungle primaries.
Even if we finally added more members to congress, you might be able to get more "extreme" members (on both sides) because the constituencies would be smaller.
This is just shooting ourselves in the foot in most of the country.
This notion of shooting down democrats is suicide politically.
ON top of that, they're not even going about it the right way. They're straight up not even trying to finesse it or approach it with any nuances or skill. At least republicans know how to speak in code and to ease their way in. These folks like AOC see everything as a literal battle and don't appreciate the ART of politics.
