Critics on both sides are saying the DNC doesn’t seem to stand for anything but anti-Trump sentiment. There’s all sorts of criticism about how it seems the DNC isn’t embracing progressive ideals. So the solution the party decides is to just go ahead and prove those critics right, while signaling that regressive ideals will be welcome in the party if it wins us a few white male votes.

FFS, this is how the DNC pulls defeat from the jaws of victory, by second-guessing itself at a time when it can least afford to do so.
