What's hilarious is the Dems are branded as woke not because of their politicians but because of their average voters are. You can convince a conservative voter that a (D) politician is not woke but they still won't vote for him because only woke people vote (D). Dems would have to purge some of their most fanatical supporters to win those conservative votes.

Imagine suggesting the Democrats tell people with the "In this house we believe..." signs to take those signs down. For some reason people are taking this suggestion seriously instead of immediately dismissing it as either inane babbling or deliberate sabotage.

That appears to be exactly what they did, as of last week
