Additional concerns pertain to Joe Biden and whether or not he possesses the temperament to face Donald Trump in a general election. On multiple occasions, Biden has forgotten which state he’s in, mistaken the names of world leaders, and confused the years which he served as vice president of the United States. These are gaffes which Trump will pounce on in a general election.
Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are also on the receiving end of censure from Democrat elites. Hillary Clinton, of all people, spoke out against the wealth tax which Warren and Sanders favor.
We've finally found a tax hike that Hillary Clinton won't support: Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax

In Clinton’s own words:
“I just don’t understand how that could work, and I don’t see other examples anywhere else in the world where it has actually worked over a long period of time.”
Clinton furthermore branded the progressive wealth tax as “disruptive.” The two-time failed presidential candidate then declared that the valuation of the wealth tax would only be the tipping point of problems to follow.
What Do Democrat Primary Voters Think?
At this time, Biden, Warren, and Sanders are the leading candidates of the Democrat Party. The former vice president typically attempts to brand himself as “electable” and “moderate.” Warren and Sanders, by contrast, are proudly progressive; some voters, however, view their proposals as radical.
