Summary

Aaron Renn, writer and Co-Founder of American Reformer, joins The Realignment. Aaron and Marshall discuss why despite his conservatism, he believes that the "neoliberal, non-woke-technocratic left" will be the source of American policy renewal, the case for the abundance agenda, populism's inability to solve the issues it identifies, the emerging bipartisan consensus around economic issues, and how today's political moment rhymes with that of the late 1970s.
