“The biggest divide in the Democratic Party is not between left and center. It’s between those who believe once Trump is gone things will go back to normal, and those who believe that our democracy is under a threat that goes beyond Trump. Everything flows from this debate. If you believe the former, simply surviving the moment is enough. If you believe the latter—as I do—then you have to be willing to contemplate ideas that were off the table even a few years ago. I have come to the conclusion that there is nothing more important than beating Trump, but beating Trump is not nearly enough. The Democratic Party needs an aggressive strategy to fundamentally reshape American democracy. … Removing Trump is not enough. America is a ‘democracy’ governed by antidemocratic institutions, a country where a growing progressive diverse majority is being governed by a shrinking conservative white minority. … I believe that un-Trumping America involves three elements: First, understanding who the Republicans are and what their strategy is. Second, winning in 2020. And finally, using our newfound political power to fix American politics to ensure we never have to deal with someone like Donald Trump ever again. … Defeating Trump is not enough; defeating Trumpism is the goal. … [T]he core of Trumpism—billionaire-funded racial grievance politics. Trump united the billionaires and the bigots. That union will continue after he is gone because they need each other to maintain their political power."
