100% spot on, although I will say this; it’s not that Democrats are too scared of casting stones within their party. It’s that they’re too terrified of displaying behavior that would displease donors. They’re happy to throw Jamaal Bowman or Rashida Tlaib under the bus if AIPAC is displeased. They’ll sideline AOC if her rhetoric makes one of their, “good,” billionaires nervous. They’ve been trying to find a balance between making their wealthy benefactors and their working class base happy for years now, and they still haven’t figured out that those goals are antithetical.
