But that's very different than saying Democrats don't have ideas.

democrats have neither new nor good ideas. In other words, they really don't have any ideas.

You think Medicare for All is a bad idea, for example. That's fine. I happen to be of the opinion that Medicare for All is both impossible to enact in our political system and that it would not reduce U.S. health care expenditures very much, if at all.

There's a scene in the movie Argo where Ben Affleck and Bryan Cranston go take their film production proposal to the State deparment. The exchange goes like this:

State Department guy: You don't have a better bad idea than this?

CIA guy: This is the best bad idea we have, sir.

But unlike the plan to get some of the trapped Americans out of Iran, Medicare For All is a hideous idea. Turning over ~20% of the US Economy to the federal government is a non-starter.

But you can't really deny that it is a major, significant, bold policy proposal.

Heating your house by burning a pile of $100 bills is a Major, Significant, Bold, idea also. So is making a Halloween costume by dipping yourself in tar and rolling in chicken feathers. But conspicuously absent in all the Major, Significant, Bold ideas the democrats "have" is the descriptor "good".

Props to you for taking your particular version of the microwaved sardine sandwich and expressing it in public. That's something your running mates on this board never do.
