Or enlightened democrats who understand there party is the actual center and that workers aren't represented outside of Bernie and AOC

Do they understand that the greater evil must be vanquished first?

Just another few hundred years and we can finally kill that other party and make a new one again. Like back when we killed the Whig party and they became Republicans and fixed everything.

The greater evil is not just the party, but the awful ideology it represents. If only the party is vanquished, but people still believe in the ideology, then yeah, it'll reassemble itself like the T-1000 and menace America all over again.

You're talking about leftists. I was saying there maybe actual centrists. Who would vote democrat even if a real leftist was on the ticket and had a real chance of winning because they actually preferred the center over the left.
