Democratic Rehab Playbook

Updated: 2026.01.12 16D ago 1 sources
A durable, unblunted playbook for center‑left recovery: commit publicly to five short, auditable reforms (clear redistributive priorities tied to measurable outputs; restoration of pro‑growth industrial policy; disciplined messaging that refuses preemptive dilution; robust institutional accountability; and a concentrated local‑electoral rebuild). Package these as milestones with transparent metrics, not just rhetorical gestures. — If adopted, a concrete 'rehab' playbook would change how parties translate ideas into measurable political revival, influencing campaign tactics, legislative agendas, and intra‑party accountability across the U.S.
