Yes, it's quite sane to chronically repeat the mistake we've been making since 1949.
Progressives havenβt made it into power once since then so Americans have been voting against them for seventy-six years now.

Weird. A massively popular progressive who gets killed in office under questionable circumstances and then the establishment just decides...
Hey, maybe we shouldn't try to elect someone with a similar platform? Let's go the other way.
Very cool, very natural.

Liberals only ever lose by a couple percentage points while the progressives only ever get a couple.
