The problem with democrats is that they always hold progressive action overhead like a carrot. “Vote for us, we’ll establish trans rights/universal healthcare/codify roe v wade!”.
Then they don’t do it because they want to use it as a fundraising and election platform next go around. If they just did things when they had power people would be more willing to vote for them.
And yes, I know that there are Republicans and independents blocking progressive action. But that doesn’t excuse the DNC from doing what I described above as well as constantly shitting on popular progressive candidates.
