My own view, fwiw, is that the Dem who could have won would have been Biden. No doubt he has some of the same regrets today.

Yep, in hindsight it appears you are correct. Since Hillary lost OH,WI, MI, and PA. Biden has that "blue collar background", and more importantly his name is not Clinton, I don't see how he would have lost all those states.

Michael Moore nailed it... It was the angry "Brexit States"

“So when the rightfully angry people of Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin find out after a few months in office that President Trump wasn’t going to do a damn thing for them, it will be too late to do anything about it.

“But I get it, you wanted to send a message, and righteous anger, justifiable anger.

Bernie would have needed to flip only 1% of Trump voters, many of whom were not die hard GOP. And he would have brought in more voters from the left too. Your opinion of mainstream is outdated, imo.
