Opinion | Abolish the Senate. End the Electoral College. Pack the Court. – The New York Times

After the great rebuke of 2024, many Democrats seem to think their party needs to become more moderate. But there s another theory potent on the American left that believes Donald Trump s election shows not just that American democracy is in danger, but that it doesn t really work at all. What the country needs isn t just a new policy agenda; it might need the kind of constitutional revolution from adding new states, to packing the Supreme Court that some Democrats already flirted with under Joe Biden.

That s the kind of argument that my guest today, Osita Nwanevu, makes in his new book, The Right of the People: Democracy and the Case for a New American Founding. Nwanevu is a contributing editor at The New Republic and the Democratic Institutions fellow at the Roosevelt Institute.
