    And somehow there always seems to be just enough of these “mOdErAteS” to kneecap a Democratic majority from doing what they promised when they get power.

    Must be a coincidence 🤔

      That’s usually how most narrow majorities work. Conspiratorial thinking doesn’t help push forward a progressive agenda.

      It’s why big business donates to both parties. Even democrats can be fooled by the corporate propaganda and they all got fundraising targets to meet if they want to keep their seat.
