This is all the more reason for Democrats to listen to progressives. They could easily win this election with no issues if they just listen to progressives. So if the stakes are so high, then why are they not compromising?
Because "easily win the election with no issues if they just listen to progressives" is not a known statement. We don't know how it'll work. If we knew that'd be the case, I'd be all for it. But right now on the West Coast, progressives are losing to Republicans in city district attorney races.
Does that mean progressives are guaranteed to lose nationally? Not at all. But it isn't a given either way, and we shouldn't pretend it is.
