I’m not asking Dems to break the rules. I would like Dems to treat the left as actual partners and take their policy seriously, instead of “we need those people to shut up or Republicans are going to burn down everything”. Republicans do not do that with their own reactionaries. They mine them for ideas and find ways to implement those policies through a long game.
Now that is a stance I can get behind. That’s just not the initial impression that’s given from the statement “we should start acting like the Republicans do”.

Thanks for the clarification.
