It didn't - Dem coalitions including highly educated progressives and people holding at least mild bigotries succeeded in every Dem presidential win before Biden. You could also make a case that it helped Biden as well, given the phenomenon of never Trump Republicans

Because there's a relevant point of comparison? Obviously politics has changed significantly, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to be learned from history. I also don't think Ben is suggesting anything nearly as broad as the new deal's coalition, there's a lot of space between us and the KKK

It feels like this whole show was people coming up with lines and scenes and not really caring about how the characters actually get there. I can't believe I still like it despite this.
