Democrats so far haven't pandered to the radicals on our end of the horseshoe, and I think that's helping us survive.

It's also been long enough, with the Left side of the horseshoe being sidelined while seeing their counterparts getting what they want, that most of them are openly defecting to the other party in hopes of getting a better shot at power than Democrats are willing to give them.

Far Left podcasters, journalists, even a handful of elected officials flirted with it up through 2020. Then 2022, putting them on their heels and empowering the Dem base, came the wholesale defection of people like Greenwald and Rogan and Chapo and Jacobin and such to arguing Dems are worse and Trump is preferable.

Now we have a handful of the elected officials joining in on it publicly, notable exception of AOC who is now an enemy for not.
