And somehow there always seems to be just enough of these "mOdErAteS" to kneecap a Democratic majority from doing what they promised when they get power.

Must be a coincidence 🤔

That's usually how most narrow majorities work. Conspiratorial thinking doesn't help push forward a progressive agenda.

It's how things worked when they had a super majority too and backed off on legislating abortion rights.
