9. Which sort of ignores the question of whether there will be a Democratic party in 2 years

Wed Dec 18, 2024, 06:13 PM

Wednesday

The GOP could see some use for it as an easy method to corral opposition, or simply dissolve it by declaring all Democrats to be terrorist supporters. The neoliberalist framework within which both parties operated for decades is giving way to a new and dangerous form of populism -- one the GOP has quickly adopted and co-opted. The old guard in the Democratic party might not be such a safe bet for continued survival going forward.
