    The subject is: “why do progressives think they know how to win elections better than the DNC if they have never done so?”

    To which I provided an explanation. They cannot win elections that the party makes certain they can’t run in. Now enjoy the results of the party’s recalcitrance.

      If they don’t know how to win elections in the face of opposition, then they shouldn’t be giving advice on how to win elections.

        Which applies to the party that lost to trump twice as well. In addition, the general election doesn’t have the party putting its thumb on the scale like the primaries do. If the party deigns to have primaries at all.

          Democrats defeated Trump once, which is still better than the track record of leftists.

          The DNC has a primary whenever a challenger gathers enough signatures and submits them on time. I realize that can be a high bar for leftists.

          And if you don’t think the GOP unfairly influences the general election, then you need to google “voter suppression”.

            Democrats don’t let progressives win primaries if they can help it. Gloat.

            Which is a problem for centrists too.
