The coalition they built was a win-win if the Dems' goal was not to win but to push the party further right.
If they won without any youth or progressive vote, then they would have carte blanche to tell them to fuck off in future elections.
If they lose, they'll blame the election on progressives and youths and tell them to fuck off in future elections.
