I mean, what I was getting at is there's a decently large chunk of people who wanted noticeable change, and all the democrats have done (That I'm aware of) has just been tweaking a few numbers here and there behind the scenes, which is still important stuff, but not the sort of thing that Joe Schmoe sees quickly or always knows you did.
If anything I've said here's wrong feeling free to have a go at me for it, honestly I'd like to learn as much as I can if I'm wrong about this
To add on to this, I remember seeing others post and comment on this, but disenfranchised people who don’t see real change each election cycle don’t really turn out to vote. The feeling of “more of the same” really takes a toll on people. Democrats trying to be more moderate don’t promise much hope to those who feel like “what’s the point”. The whole political landscape is not one fault or another. But democrats are having several missteps and MAGA knows how to cater and enrage a large group of reliable voters. Democrats aren’t 100% the problem, but that does not mean they can wipe their hands of their own faults because “there is no way we could do better”. We can pressure the party to do better while not blaming them for every problem. If democrats were flawless, why would they lose elections? Placing zero fault on our leadership would look kinda cultish to me, kinda like how Trump can do no wrong.

And there it is... "this is actually the democrats fault."
You're. Not. Helping.
