This chapter explores the political dilemmas facing the Democratic Party, particularly the chasm between its values and popular opinion on identity politics.

They argue for a reevaluation of these narratives to address pressing societal issues like public safety and wealth inequality, advocating for a more universal approach to political discourse.
