@emilygorcenski @Sharksonaplane then the loss of some constituencies due to policy disagreements wouldn't be so impactful. The Democratic coalition is a big tent with a large collection of minority people who have different and opposing wants/needs/ideologies, no policy is going to make them all happy at the same time, so having support of the majority of the majority is important to be able to absorb the constant loss and gain of small factions of voters.
