🧵 This Thomas Edsall column is extremely subpar. It is the case that "democratic socialist" is a slight liability, however, being endorsed by Trump or being MAGA is even more of a liability. Edsall does not mention that because it goes against his Clintonian conservative wishful thinking.

Are they popular? Do they mark a departure from New Deal liberal traditions? www.nytimes.com/2026/08/04/o...
