Whose America?

(11/15/18 5:00am)

Donald Trump’s recent proposal to end birthright citizenship was met with outrage and rejection from the left and right alike. Yet while such a wildly unconstitutional act would likely never be possible, there is clearly support for such a sentiment to reach the mainstream.

How to win: A primer on moral electoral politics

(09/04/18 4:00am)

Swing districts. Purple regions. The mythical undecided voter, who has yet to choose between Clinton and Trump one week before the election. This is the stuff modern political campaigns are made of: complex campaign infrastructure that devotes millions of dollars largely to targeting the mythical political middle.
