Not sure if I agree with this assessment. I don't have to agree with a candidate 100% in order to vote for them. Realistically speaking, no candidate will ever meet that criteria. Even if they did, it is unrealistic to think that they wouldn't have to compromise something once they are in office in order to get things done! I would love for a far left candidate to win the Presidency, not just because the ones that I've seen seem to truly want to make things better for those in our country who are less able to provide for themselves and stop the rich from taking advantage of the working class and buying politicians to do their bidding. Part of me would also like to see the fringe left Progressive purists lose their shit when these politicians inevitably have to compromise, or 'sell out', as it were, when they need to get something done. Because it's naive to think that we can always get what we want and not have to give something back in return.
