Ezra Klein, journalist and writer: The Democrats were more loyal to Biden than to their own chances of winning'
Briefly

Ezra Klein, once an enfant terrible of progressive journalism, has become a key commentator and author with his book 'Abundance' co-written with Derek Thompson. In this work, they analyze systemic issues in U.S. governance that hinder ambitious projects. Klein's early critiques of Biden's administration have gained renewed attention following electoral disappointments. The authors advocate for reducing bureaucracy and leveraging technology to improve citizens' lives and reconnect with disenchanted voters. Their ideas resonate within the Democratic Party, influencing platforms and discussions aimed at revitalizing progressive politics in America.
In politics, to be successful, you have to appeal to the future, not the past, Klein explains forcefully, in a video interview with EL PAIS.
Klein and Thompson argue that the American system of government is so weighed down by regulation and stagnation that it can barely launch ambitious projects.
The gridlock in government prevented Biden from fulfilling his promise to improve the quality of life for citizens.
Klein's book, Abundance, argues for cutting bureaucracy and embracing new technologies to boost prosperity, which resonates with current Democratic Party discussions.
