Since 2016, Democrats have operationally withdrawn from rural America. No party can win nationally without rural voters, and progressive economics have plenty to offer, if only the party would embrace them.

    You calling Kristen Sinema and Joe Manchin “centrists” just shows you have no idea what you are talking about. They are 100% corporate Democrats who took millions from oil or pharmaceuticals lobby to kill bills that were unfairable to them

    Yeah. centrists.

    John Fetterman voted with Republicans more than he voted with Democrats. He’s a a simple sellout to a foreign country and primarify funded by The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). He should be treated as a traitor.

    Yeah. A centrist.

      You clearly have no understanding of what centrist means. Neither of them represent the middle of the country. Even going by party affiliation and definition used by US corporate media, the center of two right wing parties is still right wing.

        Just because you have to suddenly pretend that they’re not the most emblematic members of your wing of the party, that doesn’t mean you have to gaslight.

        Neither of them represent the middle of the country.

        They represent the right flank of the democratic party. They’re centrists.

          The right flank of the Democratic party is just right wing. Not central. Their policy stances are not middle of the road, they’re self enriching and aligned withbig pharma and a coal industries

              They don’t. But being the squeaky wheel in one party in a two party system where the other party is hellbent on blocking anything their opposition wants, regardless of what it is, gives you a lot of leverage.
