    Dont listen to their words, only watch their actions. By actions alone, these 2 are MAGA.

        Is it perhaps possible they’ve been negatively coerced or threatened? I feel like this might explain a fair amount of behavior of their ilk and we are dealing with the mob after all.

          They’re fall guys. They’re handsomely paid to take the blame and be called republican plants, they ensure the DNC cannot achieve goals counter to their and their donors’ interests, but they need to maintain progressive rhetoric to keep the voter base pacified.

          If they’re replaced, two new fall guys will pop up on future issues. They allow the DNC to operate as a complicit cooperator while claiming to be the opposition.
