The major economic debate in the Democratic party right now is whether we should retain a dovish full-employment Fed chair or replace him with a dovish full-employment Fed chair who will also drastically ratchet up banking regulations.

This is the most economically left Democratic party we have had since Roosevelt. It's far to the left of Obama's. And Clinton, no wokescold himself, served two terms with a Democratic party that deliberately tacked to the right on economics without giving up anything to wokeism. I don't think this analysis holds together.

I get what you're trying to say, that there's a tradeoff between cultural issues and economic issues. My problem is that you haven't provided evidence that the tradeoff exists or is meaningful.
