The Fight for Democratic Infrastructure: A New Generation @Zee Runs Campaigns

Off_JaWaggon and Taylor bring on Zee Runs Campaigns to discuss the challenges faced by the Democratic Party, particularly in relation to populism, the 2016 election, and the need for a stronger political infrastructure. We emphasize the importance of engaging with rural America, the failures of past campaigns, and the necessity for young activists to take charge. The conversation highlights the disconnect between the party's strategies and the needs of the electorate, advocating for a more aggressive and grassroots approach to politics. You know we have to discuss the shortcomings of the Democratic Party's strategies, particularly its defensive posture against Republican policies. 

 Zee Cohen-Sanchez discusses the strategies and goals of the National Ground Game, emphasizing the need for grassroots organizing, community engagement, and building a progressive infrastructure to influence elections. The dialogue explores the importance of mobilizing support, understanding voter behavior, and fostering empathy in political discussions, particularly with those who may not align with progressive values.
