If the economy stays relatively "good," at least in the macro sense, I wouldn't underestimate the appeal of returning to the pre-Trump status quo in the Dem electorate. Yes, there's upheaval globally and in the US, but it can be counteracted by a nostalgic desire for "normalcy"

Maybe these voters aren’t wrong? It seems crazy to think that they (or we) want or need sweeping structural changes to the economy when growth is solid, unemployment is low, and wages are rising.

Well it's because she was the 'electable' candidate.

"pundits are so hostile to voters determining their preferences on the basis of "electability" Isn't that ALL they ever say? :Policies don't matter, only defeating Trump matters" (ie, Biden & Buttigieg are electable, Bernie is not)? What am I missing?

Pundits are snake oil salesman. It's why they can make so many conflicting statements or declarations & never face any serious harm to their careers. At this point many just repeat what others are saying & as long as the majority are saying such it's okay to be 100% wrong.

Congrats to Trump winning is what you are saying because you would think that to keep somebody like Trump out of office in 2016 Dems would be coming out of the woodwork regardless of Clinton. It is no different with Biden.

Biden like Clinton have the Dem base on lock down, their problem are the fringe voters on the edge and indies who look more at policies than at party hence being indies!

Hillary lost because of decades of Republicans laying the groundwork. Trump wasn’t some magically amazing candidate, people hate him. The only reason he won is because the GOP set the table so that people didn’t trust her more than they didn’t trust him. That’s it.

Michael the pre-Trump status quo is why we have the present Trump. Wage stagnation & declining since 70s is a myth to millennials who never experienced boom times. I don’t believe anyone on the D side can sustain/grow economy+fair bilat trade deals.
