it's the second one.

Shoulda said that from the start: woulda saved time.

the "powers that be" are the voters

Sometimes, more on the local, regional, and state levels than the national one.

Biden was going to be the candidate this time, come hell or high water.

Which is nonsensical if, as you say, the majority favored or favor socialism. Why would the party of the people cast away their chance to oust my employee? Sure as shit: Smokin' Joe ain't gonna do that.

Bein' fair: while I don't think Bernie or socialism were or are favored, Bernie represented, still represents, a threat to the party's old guard, the folks who'll play footsie with commies, er, socialists but themselves aren't socialists and who don't want socialists to get real power.
