&gt; Again, I don't think the basis of what you're saying is untrue, but your conclusion is.

The Democrats have become strictly peformative, and strictly on non-economic issues, and they've perfected the Rotating Villain game, similar to how a pool hustler lets you think you were *oh, so close* to keep you in the game, but you never were.

As just one example of the party going backwards:

<Person> 2008: I will fight for universal healthcare (Medicare for All)

<Person> 2016: Medicare for All will never, ever happen.

<Person> 2020: I would veto Medicare for All if it reached my desk as president

That's literally going *backwards* *during a pandemic* where everyone is supposedly fighting to show how much they care about other people's health.

It took 20 years for them to do it, but, to me at least, <Person> finally exposed themselves as the <Organization>, paid to "keep it close" and fighting to ensure no viable pro-worker candidate ever makes headway.
