Part 4/16:
Simon Basilon, a young political strategist and principal author of the Deciding to Win report, emphasizes that Democrats should prioritize issues voters care about—such as the economy and safety—more than they currently do. This aligns with the broader idea that the party must reassess its policies and messaging, much like Bill Clinton did in the 1990s when he implemented significant reforms in welfare and economic policy. Basilon advocates for "less talking and more doing," pushing Democrats to reevaluate their approach, especially on immigration and civil rights issues, which have become divisive.
