Those who run the DFL and the leftists with the most power, have clearly pushed the DFL so far to the left that they've left behind the "center/left" voters. Those voters have become more and more marginalized, and are left with two choices. Sit out, or vote GOP.

I've said this for a while now. The DFL has no unifying principles, they are merely a coalition of groups that have (in many cases) diametrically opposed views. The DFL then pretends that each group is the focus of their policies, and DFL voters don't seem to care that they don't get what that thought they were getting.

They are a cluster, aren't they? What brings them together is they want to appear to be all things to all people. It's like Dan posturing as a Christian, while enabling that which is clearly unChristian.
But to have so many differing factions, each seeking to assert dominance or priority over the others, there can't help but be conflict. I think most Dem voters ignore the conflicts and pretend they're being put first by the party and content themselves with the belief, even though there's no evidence to justify it.
That's what I've been pointing out for years. They want to have a coalition that contains Union coal miners, and radical Greens, without acknowledging that those two groups are in complete opposition when it comes to their goals. So, the DFL ends up lying to both (all) of the groups in their coalition, while expecting those groups to ignore the reality.
I think that what theoretically joins these disparate constituencies, as the narrative that they are "oppressed" in some way, and that the DFL will end that "oppression". Strangely enough, the DFL instead simply maintains the status quo for the most part, until they need to throw one group (labor unions) under the bus to prioritize another(Greens). Yet they still expect that the labor unions will blindly support them, even as they continue to throw the labor unions under the bus.
I think that it boils down the the Marxist worldview of "oppressor/oppressed" and they cling to their status as the "oppressed" regardless of how True the narrative really is.
Theoretically the unifying factor on the conservative side is principles, I don't see much on the DFL side that demonstrates core principles.
