pro·gres·sive
/prəˈɡresiv/

adjective
1.
happening or developing gradually or in stages; proceeding step by step.

Gradual. Slowly step by step.

They want to go from zero to one hundred in seconds. Nothing progressive about that.You also build a coalition, followers to help you lift. No one small segment of the Democratic party can do it all. You don't do it by alienating others. One by one you collect each brick before you can build anything. Progress is made over time. You build one brick at a time. Step by step.
