Do you not know how political systems work? Change the people holding the levers of power and you change the agenda that guides their policies.
Yeah, if you vote in enough progressive Dems then they can oust Schumer and Jeffries and replace them with people like Bernie and AOC. That’s how this entire system works and what it’s predicated on.
The reason that hasn’t happened yet is because progressives have as yet only been a minority within the party. There are signs that may change in the next few electoral cycles, but if you want to cry and break things like a petulant child because you don’t believe in incremental progress and can’t have everything you want right now, then don’t fucking complain when the broken system isn’t working the way that it should.
Incrementalism marches to the right, it always has. Liberals have claimed for decades they need more time, and everytime they are extended more they shift further to the right. Today’s Democrats are to the far right of 1980s Democrats
