MODERATORS
It's not small. The Congressional Progressive Caucus is 95/215 House Democrats. It's half the damn party.
If they left, the Democratic Party would collapse, so it's insane how senior Dem leaders treat them. Democratic leadership sucks at coalitions, though, or even listening to voter sentiment, so I don't expect them to learn anything from all their recent anti-progressive actions that have been blowing up in their faces.
