Short right wing populism I am not ready to call long on the left populist response though Biggest danger for a triumphant right is that the right’s political elites coasts under the veneer of their ‘populist’ mandate, and actually implement their agenda. The GOP veers sharply from their (newish) voters: not rly very populist, but clearly see a unique opportunity to cut long-hated programs they typically can’t touch because they are so…popular, esp. among their base. All these programs are vital to the survival of whatever remains of the working and middle class in America. The political impact of culling stuff like Medicare, meals on wheels, medicaid, social security would be significant. Pair that with the general weariness the culture seems to express about the culture wars. I mean… Dasha is 40+, and can the manhattan institute get anyone else to care about critical race theory who doesn’t already? Of course I’m wary that dems seize the moment, but the current meta feels cashed

Dems will definitely not do left-wing populism, but def dont short left populism because the dems are to stupid to realize the opportunity. Trump won with the fact being out there that at least a part of the people in his circle(project 2025, for example) explicity were like yea we want to kill entitlements. If anything Trumps win shows that someone with a real labor background who speaks to the the working class could win on a left populist platform( even though the historical association with that is negative in America)

There are 3 parties now. The same DNC as before. The new GOP which is now half career democrats, this is mostly the libertarian party. And then the old RINO GOP. Yes there are still technically only 2 parties but the old DNC only exists is imaginations now after USAID cutoff all the funding. They will disappear because they won’t change. Old GOP guard are actually RINOs and military complex and they are losing grip. The bigger issue is where are the Epstein files and why aren’t people on both sides being arrested. Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison for trafficking minors to… no one?
