529 | Senator Chris Murphy: Can Economic Populism Win the Fight for the Working Class?

Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy joins The Realignment. Marshall and Senator Murphy discuss why the 2028 election could come down to which party presents the stronger economic populist case, why the Republican shift towards populism could be undermined by the contradictions of governance, the need for Democrats to speak to voters who disagree on social issues, and the broader crisis of meaning, spirituality, and loneliness in America and its roots in the neoliberal consensus.
