It will be, but not only from them winning. This aittitude is a big part of the problem.
You won't win via a violent revolution, and you wont win via a third party (anyone who understands the basic forces involved when a system has winner takes all or first past the post), so instead you win by slowly taking over the democrat party with increasingly progressive candidates.
Its literally the only way a slow system like the US can be changed, and this "why didn't they fix it in one term!!!!" attitude seeks to attribute blame rather than problem solve.
I think the smart take is to understand the DNC is antagonistic towards our goals but simultaneously is the entity we need to slowly change (through primaries, state and local politics) and continue to support while that happens to avoid the massive harm of having republicans win.
