Schumer quietly nails down the left amid AOC primary chatter

[Hortensis]

12. Here's what's NO COINCIDENCE: Democratic majority equals progressive action.

Always. In every era. Without fail. The bigger the majority power, the bigger the advances.

It makes sense that Ocasio feinting at his senate seat would affect HOW Schumer presented what he was doing to the public, because it's critical that as many NYers understand as possible. But that it would cause significant change in goals does not. Schumer is a lifelong progressive liberal, and everything's in our party platform and dedicated goals.

In 2018 we got control of the house and passed hundreds of bills there, and now that we have enough power in the senate Schumer is acting on them and other senate bills that McConnell blocked.

Btw, I'm disgusted that this puffery of the power of the left's illiberal faction actually quoted that lying anti-Democrat Chakrabarti claiming credit for Democratic Party actions, while it completely failed to point out that making allies of every possible faction, including the Sunrise Movement, is what party leaders do.

Chakrabarti's illiberal left faction is not possible. They oppose the Democratic Party in all situations. That's both their identity and reason for existence.
