      If someone like FDR gets elected again, moderates might lose control of the Dem.party for ever.

      If Republicans win, that just means they take a break before moderate Dems get to take their turn again

      There’s a reason the DNC fight progressives but boosted trump in the 2016 primary.

      They’ll always pick a temp loss of power over a permanent one.
