    Pretty much everyone does. In fact when you focus on the actual policies of progressives and democratic socialists, the platforms are appealing to both Democrats and conservatives.

    In other words, corporate Democrats aren’t going to win over voters from the Republican party, but Democratic Socialists and progressives have the potential to actually flip votes
