The broader problem with Democrats is the intra-party conversation is totally broken because no one can publicly acknowledge that Obama was a very bad President with very bad ideas, and that Democrats should not have supported him.

The Twitter (Ecch) is nominally about Obamacare, but Stoller includes things like letting Live Nation and Ticket Master merge as well.
I do not understand how the Clinton and Obama administrations can be seen as some sort of high point of the Democratic party. Their politics were awful, they were better for the Republicans than Reagan, and their policies, repealing Glass-Steagall, NATO Expansion, Libya, Dodd Frank, Syria, moribund antitrust and labor enforcement, the privatization of public schools, etc.
It's a long thread, which you can read on the Threadreader App here.
