Progressives' Plan for Handling Trump Is Too Clever to Work
Briefly

By and large, progressives are repeating generations' worth of arguments about how Democrats have let corporate elites lead them into globalist and centrist policies. Centrists tend to point to extremist cultural positions shaped by organized constituency groups.
Centrists are calling for more aggressive outreach to voters lost to Trump, along with a tweak of controversial cultural positions, especially support for transgender rights that the Trump campaign effectively targeted.
Critics of identity politics are not arguing for complete agreement with MAGA in rejecting transgender rights, indicating a strategic gap between Democrats on how to cope with Trump 2.0.
Bernie Sanders is leading the way in talks about coopting Trump's more 'populist' positions, showing a divide in strategic approaches within the party after Harris’s loss.
