If there's so much appetite for a progressive/socialist party in the USA, how come there isn't one that gets a significant amount of financing and votes?

When they don't have all 3 (house of reps Senate and presidency) they are forced to reach across the aisle. And they've had all 3 for, drumroll please, 4 of the last 24 years. Or 6 of the last 32 years. Or 6 of the last 44 fucking years. Don't want them to reach across the aisle? Then give them consistent and overwhelming victories.
I know posts like those feel good, but the objective fact is that the political conversation and (much more importantly) public policy has moved drastically leftward in both shorter terms (the last decade) as well as more medium-term measurements (the last fifty years).
