They know, thats why every discussion revolving politics to the left of the republicans devolves into “what the fuck you gonna do, vote republican?”
Abuser mentality. Hostage politics. No democracy to be had here.

It’s getting hard to tell if they even want to win. Even a year ago it might be plausible to argue that centrism is a smart strategy, but at this point, with victories like Mamdani and Mejia, it’s just demonstrably wrong. Hell, Platner is still leading Mills in Maine even after the whole, “having a Nazi tattoo,” thing. If the Democrats are still pursuing centrism going into 2028, then they have to admit they would prefer losing to fascists than adding progressives to their tent.
