I think because it's not a monolith. You have some far left and some left of center and many who can support various views neither right or left.

But the left wasn’t messaging it. The Republicans heard someone somewhere say it, and ran with it. I guess the Dems lacked message discipline in being to slow to disavow it, but I honestly never heard a Democratic official say it.

Cori Bush, Ayanna Pressley said it directly. This odor spread over the whole party because it was not disavowed immediately and repeatedly.
