bush s protest about the eviction moratorium did force some action from the white house. at the polls, it s a much different story. it s the moderates who keep winning. it started in 2020 with the big bernie versus biden primary. biden won quite handily, you know? there s evidence number one. it s continued all this year. this was a special congressional election in louisiana. it was the pragmatist, the moderate, that beak back a progressive challenger. we saw it again earlier this week in akron, ohio, where you saw schon tell brown beat nina turner, who was a well-known surrogate for bernie sanders. we saw it in the virginia gubernatorial primary and we saw it in the new york city democratic mayoral primary where eric adams beat back a slew of progressive candidates. the bottom line is, at the ballot box we have an idea of what the base of the democratic party looks like. it looks a lot more like the democratic coalition joe biden put together.
