I'm not sure where you're going with a thus since I'm referring to primary if congressional leaders and you're hung up on the presidency, another weird thing we only do on that left.
The right did have a candidate that refused to participate in their party's debates and threatened the party's leaders so there is something there but it's not a fair comparison since the left isn't good at authoritarian demagoguery.
