This is a case study in US electoralism not a grand evaluation about how lib NYC-DSA is. They couldn't keep a hold on her to begin with because in 2019 they had no one to back her up in office and so she was "lost to the consultant class". If she snuck into office a few years ago, then we probably wouldn't be seeing this behavior from her.
