It is the entire national Democratic party and their gigantic horde of consultants.

People here don’t seem to understand that Trump winning to them, is a preferable outcome to someone like Bernie Sanders ever holding power.

I’m not saying they want Trump in office, I’m saying that Trump in office means they retain their jobs and influence. Both of which are predicated upon keeping their voters trained on the idea that campaigns are only about marketing, and politics is about anything other than how it can directly improve their material conditions.

Imagine a Democratic politician broke through the existing power structures and enacted something like Medicare for All. That is is the biggest threat to their power: an actual FDR Democrat. Someone who takes money and power from the donor class, and uses it to directly improve the material conditions for the rest of us.
