The "New" Jacobin Democrats

So I searched YouTube and found this video where Victor Davis Hanson explains who these people are. Ironically, he uses Maine's new Democrat idol Graham Platner as the example. That's a new concept to me but Platner does fit the mold from what I have seen of him. The Jacobin shoe fits:
