How I Describe Myself Politically These Days

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : And that is one place I would use tariffs and government investment to give this industry a leg up.
45% : So much of what they are about is lazily bashing billionaires, along with defending Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid from the Trump-Elon Musk chain saw.
44% : Instead of wrecking our great research institutions like the National Institutes of Health and our national labs the way Trump is, we would triple their budgets and encourage more research in robotic cars.
30% : To accelerate this industry further, Waymo Democrats would do everything Trump is doing maliciously today -- but do it productively.
29% : Trump today is offering America a spectacularly wrong answer -- a tariff war against the whole world and a revival of 1960s assembly lines -- to a very valid question: How do we get more Americans making stuff again?
28% : Any time all that you are focused on is reinventing the past -- the way Trump is with coal and combustion cars -- you end up stuck in the past.
23% : At a time when Trump Republicans have so given up on the future, Democrats should be for reinventing it.
22% : And our TV ads would say: "Trump is for he/him -- his grievances, his revenge, his corruption -- and for bringing old stuff back 'again,' like coal and gasoline cars.
11% : It's because, as my colleague David Brooks likes to say, Donald Trump is often the wrong answer to the right question.
