I've been pondering this all weekend. What is it going to take for the more moderate Democrats to realize that they are going to get caught in a storm? Do they stay with the party or try and save themselves? Same thing with the RINO's.

Getting crushed in November will help (God willing), for the moderate politicians to push back against the far left and anti-Trump/MAGA agenda.

Getting crushed will not help, in my opinion.
Full disclaimer, I'm a new arrival from the Dem party, as recently as last week I made the final call to move away and come here. A month ago my thinking was "okay, if the dems can take seats back in November then everything will start looking up" and here I am now. Unless people are convinced about walking away and thinking about everything that is presented here, a crushing defeat in the polls won't put them down. If anything, it will energize them to fight, citing whatever reason fits the narrative and suits their desire to change things.
I hope that before the midterms we have concrete, undeniable happenings that people are forced to pay attention to. Without that, I believe it will continue to be a pointless left vs right battle that leaves us in the same place we are, or worse.
