Phillip Bump: “The undercurrent in the swollen Democratic presidential primary field has become a near-audible rumble: Who can defeat President Trump?”
“It’s not an irrational way to approach the subject. It’s just . . . problematic. Why? Because electability has been a questionable indicator in the past and because it’s heavily colored by individual prejudices.”
Kyle Kondik: “Certainly Trump’s victory is a great argument against the idea that so-called electability can be discerned in advance.”
