A Way Forward After the 8 Democratic Capitulators [View all]

On January 5, 2026, a major Democratic Press Conference should be held to announce "Project 2029": a specfic set of policy goals, no merely to refute Project 2025, but to announce after 40 years of Conservative ruin, its time to focus shelping hard working, Middle Class Americans who have been screwed by the right. Unlike the secretive Project 2025, Democrats state what the party stands for in the open.

Ideas might include:

* Tax Hikes on the Upper 1% because its time for them to pay their fair share.
* Term limits or additional justices to the Supreme Court
* Healthcare reforms to a broken system that will cover ALL Americans
* An acutal livable minimum wage
* Securing the right to vote for EVERY American
* Bringiing back tye fairness doctrine.
* Sensible Gun Regulations

"PROJECT 2029 BEGINS WHEN WE CAPTURE BOTH HOUSES of CONGRESS IN THE 2026 MID-TERMS!"

If the above ideas are too radical, then maybe the detractors shouldn't be in the Democratic Party.

Other ideas for Project 2029?
