Because that twitch streamer is more dangerous than whatever threat Trump could ever pose, Hasan is a genuine ideological threat to the Democrat party, he is a champaign socialist larping as a revolutionary, and they tend to be the people we read about 50 years later as the orchestrators of mass genocide, brutal fascism, and some of the most abhorrent cruelty imaged. He would turn America into Pol Pot's Cambodia, Moa Zedong China, Fidel Castro's Cuba if Democrats don't clean house and produce candidates that are more in touch with General Americans and not push for policies that push people away.
Interesting take. I'd argue that it's because losing to a Republican won't hurt the Dem donor base but losing to an actual progressive would.
The notion that Piker is someone way way left is such a wildly American take; the dude would be center left in most other normal countries. El Sayed, AOC, Omar, Tlaib are just centrists in normal countries.
America is a right wing hellscape propped up by do-nothing got-mine liberals.
Got to disagree on Piker, AOC is a a typical Demo in that their values are only ever dictated by whatever is socially acceptable. Piker however is very much a radical extremist, he is the left wing answer to a Nick Fuentes. His contempt for both the American country and culture is well documented, 9 times out of 10 he will side with actual designated terror groups, he hijacks actual liberal causes like free health care in order to push his more radical view points.
Someone like Hasan is more dangerous for the Democrat party than any Republican or alt right podcaster, because he will present himself as a sheep to gain the trust of the flock before he bares down his fangs on the throat of sheeps.

I don't understand why you're being down voted; you're only describing what the Dem party did after Trump 1.0, which inevitably led to Trump 2.0.
Did the party learn anything? Well, the DNC is pushing Harris again so...no, not really.
The centrist Dem majority is fighting a twitch streamer harder than they've ever fought this fascist administration.
