The Democrats will happily and willingly engage with the worst positions to win except actually moving left, because ultimately they serve imperial interests and only imperial interests. Obama pretended to be left leaning and won everything, an absolute nightmare for the Dems. Their unflinching support for the Zionazi genocide is the clearest example of this. I can’t think of a more clear cut example of controlled opposition.
For the midterms it seems like they should win the Senate but I think the Republicans will still find a way to cuck them like they did with Bush.
They seem to do better when they do the Obama playbook but they don’t always do it. Like Kamala began with progressive pandering and when the polls were good they did a hard right shift.

Obama is their playbook now. Do anything to gain support from the left without actually doing anything for them.
