As someone who went out on a limb and said Biden would win - this is worrisome.
If memory serves me this was LIKELY voters too.
Trouble is Biden has to be more Biden. If his Club 401K advisors are people like Liberals are here.....they'll keep giving him bullet points that matter more to the top 10-20% of America- meaning these Whole Foods putzes here.
YES remind people about the situation 3.5 years ago.
YES show people the progress.
(He's got plenty of time and MONEY to do this when the time is right...it's a bit early now.)
BUT....
Also talk to people who are frustrated over buying milk or a Big Mac. Or see now way to buy a house.
Talk real to them - and then hope the Republicans and the Talibanesque parts of their abortion policy carry you.

I still don’t see Trump winning; his path to 270 electoral votes is too tough.

I don't share your optimism. Biden isn't energizing his base, and a lot of people are unhappy with the Palestinian situation.
The biggest vote-getter for Biden is Trump. Biden is competent, but unexciting. He also is upper right quadrant (right authoritarian), which doesn't speak to progressives. Not as far as most Reps, but still upper right.
Trump can win if Biden loses enough progressive support. A lot of progressives have purity tests (i.e. "not progressive enough"), and could just stay home.

" I still don’t see Trump winning; his path to 270 electoral votes is too tough."
Reminds me of 2016, when 99 percent of the MSM experts repeated over and over again, trump has no path he can not win, remember? Lets see who replaces Joe ?
