As party leaders fret about whether Kamala Harris lost for being seen as too "woke" on various issues, the coastal deep-blue enclaves are completely disconnected from that conversation, and the party's dreadful standing on the national stage.

Holy framing, Batman! This is the answer to performative "wokeness" in stead of addressing the issues at their material roots. This not some sort of ivory tower elitism of extremists, detached from the conversation, it is an answer to it.
