I think the case for popularism is basically a necessary but not sufficient one.
But, I am surprised that given the increase of educational polarization even among Black voters, no one has brought up conservative views on traditional gender/family roles.
Always looked like a factor in Warren's poor general election polling, for example. Do you have any numbers on that?

Andrew:
Good questions. The things that come to mind are these two papers, which found that hostile sexism was a significant predictor of voting for Trump regardless of race in 2016 and 2020: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/british-journal-of-political-science/article/abs/heightened-importance-of-racism-and-sexism-in-the-2018-us-midterm-elections/63FBECDD4051CB3408178C782E51E45D
and that "hegemonic masulinity" was a strong predictor in 2016 and 2020 as well: https://www.pnas.org/content/118/2/e2020589118
Thanks, the PNAS study is interesting. I would love to see it taken on by a political practitioner with less academic language.
