The right already has a party that aligns with their values and who will win their votes. Why do the Dems think they can out Republican the Republicans and that there's no votes to pick up on the left?

They won't pick up any votes, they'll pick up billionaire donors who use them as controlled opposition, they will continue to lose every election, and they will continue to personally benefit off it.

True but I think that there's still room for them to lose even more votes if they drop any pretense of being left of Trump
