Popular views in this country have been shifting left for the past generation even as the government and party politics has generally stayed or gone more to the right. Republicans should thank the DNC for constantly undermining the Left while helping the Right. https://theintercept.com/2019/02/05/nancy-pelosi-medicare-for-all/
That’s because the DNC wants to actually be effective in national politics where the current vocal members of the democrats seem fine with the far left echo chamber that doesn’t extend more then 30 miles from the coasts
The dnc wasn't very effective after 2008. Remeber when that guy trump got elected? Or when the dnc lost like 30 governorships and state legislatures? And both houses of congress?
Yes, this is the argument of the DNC centrists (although in 2016, they claimed the opposite - that Sanders was only popular in the rust belt but would never fly on the coasts). But is there anything to back this up? Things like medicare for all and raising minimum wages are popular majority views even in “red states”. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vox.com/platform/amp/2018/11/7/18071804/minimum-wage-arkansas-missouri-election-ballot-measure Scroll down to see the polls - almost 50% of registered republicans supported “left” measures like Medicare for all. https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-election-progressives/ So really the echo chamber are the centrists who think that appealing to conservative “swing voters” who are 1% of the voters is more valuable than going after the majorities of young people and poor people across the country that actually support these things.
We need Kamala the freebie giver as our president! Hail Presidente!!
