Kentucky Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear has vetoed a bill touted by its Republican supporters as an attempt to bring clarity to the state's near-total abortion ban.
I have come to suspect they do absolutely know this. And it’s why they put stops in at every turn. I can’t say what’s actually going on in their heads but it’s not winning elections and it sure as hell isn’t representing their constitutents desires. Democrats are a Conservative Party—classically liberal. They do not like or want actual progressive policy.
There’s no way they don’t know that progressive platforms win.
Look at all the flipped party double agents over the past few years who ran as progressives and flipped to Republican as soon as they got into office? They absolutely know.
That’s truly surprising to me, but then again Bernie won over a Fox “News” audience. People do want good things for themselves when they aren’t being fed packaged vitriol and hate and fear of the “other.”
Progressives tend to out perform in red states
I wish the Democrats would understand this.

Bernie won Oklahoma in 2016 primary. We were a socialist state for many decades. Labor Omni vincit.
