    Last year, progressives said they could not support Biden because of inflation. Or because of student debt. Or because of the BNSF strike.

    It’s clear Democrats cannot rely on support from progressives, and for this reason it makes sense for Democrats to try to appeal to moderates. Unlike progressives, moderates seem willing to support Democrats as they are instead of requiring them to be something else.
