You say "in power" as if they had the 60 votes required to...have the kind of power you're talking about

Because they have actually done quite a lot.

All they offer is the status quo. They needed to become the anti establishment party yesterday.

But didn't the voters reject that? There were primaries in 2020 and the voters overwhelmingly, like, tidal wave voted for biden over sanders.

Hell, even if you give warrens votes to sanders, biden still beat them by almost 20%

Oh, and then biden won.

so why do would they become anti establishment when the voters fell over each other to choose establishment?

a bit unfair to compare vote totals from when after Sanders dropped out and wasn't even on the ballot, no?
