    They need the conservative voters in swing states. Do the Dems in swing states get excited about leftists or progressives? Like in 2016 Hillary had more votes in AZ, NV, FL, OH. I wish Bernie had gotten to the general and I think the EC is a cancer. But I don’t think going by popular vote is a viable strategy given that we have to deal with that reality.

      They need swing voters and yeah that’s what I’m saying. When they lose, they go to the center to find the swing voters.

      So how do you get them to go left? By giving them victories. Because when they lose they go to the center.
