Yeah. The Democrats have been doing this for like 30 years at this point. The people who "vote their conscience" or try to "revoke their consent" get used as a scapegoat to chase Moderates and disaffected Republicans. They punch left crying how they're not those crazy hippies and they're actually just the reasonable common sense consensus. Like bloody fucking hell this exact thing happened in 2016.
Bernie Bros got vilified for Clinton losing and did any of them look at all the people that went from Bernie in the primary to Jill Stein or even to Trump and say "Hey, maybe this Bernie guy was on to something?" and move even a little left? No, they went with Mr. Bipartisanship, because he was "more electable" to the moderates. But every 4 years like clockwork it's "No guys trust me, this time they'll learn their lesson and stop putting forward neoliberal ghouls. We just didn't threaten their power enough last time." It's maddening
