If there's enough of us that it could seriously endanger the elections for the Dems, their analysts likely know this already and have no choice but to consider concessions to try to regain some of those votes, therefore we do have power.
More likely, we just don't have enough to move the needle, and therefore all this hand wringing is a waste of breath.
Maybe next election people will realize we can't move the Dems left by unwaveringly voting for them every single election, we have to hold them to account. Otherwise this shitty cycle of choosing the "less bad option" every election because it's an emergency will not ever end. It is in the Dem's interest that it does not.
Any concessions to Leftists will cost far more moderate votes than it would buy Leftist votes. Leftists are NOTORIOUSLY fickle, and one of your leading voices this election is an obvious Russian plant who wouldn't accept any concessions under any circumstances.
