It’s almost like if you create a platform that completely disenfranchises your voting base to try and appeal to your opponent, people won’t continue to support you when you show that you no longer protect their interests.
It’s always, for decades now, attempt after attempt to appeal to the “moderates” and “reach across the aisle” to get R’s to flip but never are they allowed to move the needle to the left otherwise they get ousted as being “too radical”, in order to pull in the gigantic swatch of the population who do not participate because they see that no one actually gives a shit about them.

They keep trying to court voters who will never ever vote for them instead of the people who they claim to share values with.
R stopped with that shit and surprise surprise they got Trump in. Tell me again how we could never have gotten Bernie in or how AOC is too radical…
