The author describes his political affiliation as a 'Waymo Democrat', emphasizing a focus on innovation and advanced manufacturing over the policies of Donald Trump. He critiques Trump's strategies, citing them as outdated, and advocates for a forward-thinking approach to job creation in America. The author praises progressive figures like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for their activism but urges them to focus on future-oriented solutions rather than purely defending existing benefits. The essence of a 'Waymo Democrat' is about revitalizing industry and creating new, meaningful employment opportunities.
As my colleague David Brooks likes to say, Donald Trump is often the wrong answer to the right question. Trump today is offering America a spectacularly wrong answer.
If Democrats are going to again be the party of the working class, and unify the country more, they need a strategy for expanding the pie of work.
Waymo Democrats are for 'We the People' and reinventing American industry anew, focusing on advanced manufacturing.
