I don’t know why it’s so difficult to hold these two thoughts simultaneously, but: a) There are progressive ideas that are popular with the public even though donors don’t like them. b) There are also progressive ideas that are genuinely unpopular with the public. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s also usually not that hard to tell the difference between (a) and (b). Ideas that specifically redistribute from a small group to the majority (wealth tax, e.g.) tend to be popular even when they’re “extreme” or donors hate them. But not every left-wing ideas is like this. — PolitiTweet.org
