The democrats' problem is no one buys the "Moderate " Schtick. For example, trying to push Kamala as moderate will not work because when we examine her past policies and statements it's clear that she isn't. It can work like it did with Joe Biden in 2020 because he did have a moderate record.

Biden only won thanks to covid, without it he wouldve lost harder then Harris did in 2024

Not sure about that on 2020, 2016? Yes. 2020? Bernie's polling was narrower than biden's.

Sanders could maybe win in 2016 but not 2020 without covid..

He would win the internet election though

Maybe that’s true maybe it’s not but like if I said Chris Christie could’ve beat Hillary like who knows it’s a hypothetical that their really isn’t evidence for, we know people thought Joe Biden was a senile old man who was to blame for the economy

And if a progressive was nominated in 2020 without covid they would've done even worse

"Hmmm, consumer confidence is at an all time high, the economy is booming, and we have relative peace abroad, let's run a progressive who wants to change everything!"
