they’ve actually accomplished things

They elevated Trump in the 2016 Republican primaries and then lost to him in the general election.

Your ability to assess the success of a strategy is suspect sir.

And your petulant childish behavior is without bounds. Listen I've never once questioned your commitment or political alignment. Yes I've commented how you behavior is childish. Which it is and that's one thing. But I've never questioned your intent. Just the efficacy of it. And you've proven over and over again by impuning upon my commitment calling myself and others no true lefty. Because we disagree with you. You could not be displaying anymore petulant childish behavior.

Even your last response here was completely disingenuous purposely missing the point. Yes they f***** themselves over with trump. But on the regular they actually get things accomplished. Whereas people like yourself who constantly harp on others, denying their identities. Are the exact reason why people in general don't take the left very seriously and why the left as a group struggles to get anything accomplished. Have fun with your Purity tests.
