"Katz argues that for the Party to win a historic majority in the next election, it needs to embrace outsider candidates who refuse money from corporate PACs and aren't 'apologetic' about the government's role in people's lives."
"We can run a campaign that says, 'Donald Trump said he'd end forever war and lower costs and he hasn't'-that will be successful."
"I think even more successful would be that we are going to end forever wars, and we are going to lower costs by taking on monopolies-by taking on price gouging, by raising wages, by taxing billionaires more."
The potential for a "blue wave" in the 2026 midterms is examined, emphasizing the need for the Democratic Party to support outsider candidates. Morris Katz advocates for candidates who reject corporate PAC money and are unapologetic about government involvement in citizens' lives. He believes a successful campaign can focus on criticizing past promises made by Donald Trump while proposing solutions like ending forever wars, combating monopolies, raising wages, and increasing taxes on billionaires to lower costs.
