I don't think that it's accurate anymore. Democrats don't seem to be stupid, overly trusting, or disunited anymore. I mean, in a 50-50 senate, they've constantly had 49 votes for bills, usually with Manchin and all Republicans dissenting. That's a far cry from the Obama era, where the Democrats had a supermajority but didn't have the votes to pass basic parts of Obama's proposed bills, because the party was disunited.

For a very long time, the Democrats were several different parties loosely united under one. As AOC put it "In any other country Biden and I would be in different parties". They were the "Big Tent Party". Now it's the Republicans whose divisions are becoming visible.
