I think it’s safe to say from an objective standpoint that unfortunately the majority of US voters do not support progressive candidates, given more than half the country is either conservative or doesn’t vote in primaries.

That first box is a leap. Votability of progressive candidates depends heavily on location.
Mamdani would not have won in Arkansas.

Holy shit people have no idea what the DNC does.
Answer, absolutely nothing, they are useless and a non factor

Yeah man all those progressive candidates supported by “the majority” of the US. Americans sure are champing at the bit to vote for progressives.

Lmao if the majority of us supported progressive candidates they’d win primaries and elections

Bernie lost to Hillary by more than 3 million votes and to Biden by 9 million votes.

Then run super progressive candidates in deep red seats and win if its that easy you morons.
Turns out you only have a shot in +30 blue districts where you win by less than you should.
Stop telling us how popular you *would* be and prove it! After all Mamdani won in New York!

This is unfortunately true. The DNC would rather lose with right wingers and centrist, than win with progressive.

Didn’t even Jefferies endorse Mamdani?

Lol you gotta love that they support dude in maine when he wins the primary and all of a sudden all the memes pop up saying they don’t support progressives.

God damn that’s a lazy meme.

This is one of those memes where people don’t understand where it came from.
The guy dropped like a foot. It wasn’t a big drop at all and he just walked away when he hit the ground.

It’s neither accurate that the majority of the US supports progressive candidates or that the DNC has the power/motivation to unilaterally stop them

Is the accuracy in the room with us now

I’m convinced that the DNC is run by republicans cause human beings can’t be as stupid as they are.

How dare the Democrats give the nomination to the person with the most votes?

I think “majority of US” and “progressive candidates” should be swapped

The Majority of the US does not support progressive candidates. That is why progressives only win in already safe blue areas. Zohran Mamdani only won 50.7% of the vote in deep blue NYC.
