Democrats

 The Ink -Legal scholar and historian Samuel Moyn questioned the Democratic strategy against Trump — and made the case that a New Deal-scale policy platform is the way to remake American politics for the better.

I foresee a long period of feints on both sides in this direction until a politician who hasn’t emerged yet seizes the opportunity to follow F.D.R. and bring together a breakthrough supermajority. We don’t know what the class party platform I mentioned earlier will involve — I have my doubts that it can stick with Joe Manchin-friendly environmental spending or even whether Biden’s antitrust enforcement is the best tactic — but those have definitely been the most promising signs of a break with neoliberalism that both parties seem to recognize is in the offing.
