12. Well progressives aren't fighting
Mon Jul 6, 2026, 01:33 PM

We are winning primary elections. It's not a secret plot against anyone. We ran in primaries like any other candidate, just because progressives are winning against incumbents.
If incumbents are losing those elections, maybe they should have been listening to their constituents.

The only people fighting other Democrats are the moderates. Maybe they should stop talking and start listening more.
