The likes of Rahm Emmanuel keep telling us that moderate Democrats are the ones “who get things done,” but the only things getting done are because Bernie Sanders is pushing for them.

There is only one Dem that costs more votes than the Goldwater Gal, that's Rahm!

They do "get things done" -- for their bosses in industry, on Wall Street, in the pharmaceutical and fossil fuel lobbies, etc. "Moderate Democrats" are Nixon/Reagan Republicans pretending to give a shit.

I never see a bunch of people who fights against the party they runs to represent, said they're progressives.. don't think you people are Democrats, thinks everything is about you guys, and you never wins elections

Except when they make absolutely damn sure to prevent things from getting done. nytimes.com/2021/08/13/us/po…

“Moderates” are just corporate Democrats who get things done for their big money backers. Only progressives get things done for the rest of us.

Moderate Democrats get things done. Things like sending 3,000 more troops to fight endless wars in the Middle East. Things like approving 2,500 permits to drill for oil on public and tribal lands. Things like threatening to veto #Medicare4All to protect health industry profits.
