Exactly this. The Democratic Party has been completely purchased by the donor class.
Both parties now act in the interest of the wealthy, and arguably have for a while. This is why the largest thing we can point to coming out of the Democratic Party in decades are things like the ACA and the CHIPS act. These only entrench already established powerful interests, the same powerful interests that line the democratic party’s pockets.
They didn’t fix healthcare they just tried to make private insurance companies viable a little bit longer by making it mandatory that everyone join in. This was a massive giveaway to health insurers.
