James Carville emphasizes the need for the Democratic Party to adopt a "wildly popular and populist economic agenda" to win over dissatisfied voters. He insists that Democrats must go big on economic progress to regain their footing.
Rahm Emanuel echoes Carville's sentiment, stating that Democrats have historically missed out on leveraging populist anger, particularly against the elite in sectors like Wall Street. He calls attention to missed opportunities to convey the party's alignment with working-class voters.
Emanuel also points to societal frustration with economic elites, referencing extreme actions and responses to healthcare industry leaders as evidence of the populist sentiment that the Democratic Party has overlooked.
