He's saying that the sorts of highly partisan, ultra-ideological Democrats who are likely to be nominated in 2018, should they gain control of Congress and impeach Trump, are the sorts of people who will so utterly alienate the center of the country that by the time 2020 rolls around they'll get crushed.
That seems right to me... hell, they almost nominated Ellison as DNC chair, who could best be described as "the guy Republicans must have been confusing Obama with for all those years". The establishment's grip over that party is just as tenuous as the GOP's was when they lost their hold over it.
