This is, I think, why progressivism is having a hard time right now. Progressive reforms have created a gantlet of reviews, checks and balances, public participation and veto points to try to prevent government from making bad decisions - but because that morass applies to everything government does, it makes it almost impossible for government to make any big decisions in a timely or efficient way. But progressives, unlike most classic conservatives, want government to play an important, active, and timely role in society.

Progressivism? This is why the Clintonite wing of the democratic party will lose us elections and cement the authoritarian state under Republican leadership. Ya'll have nothing to offer except "not Trump" and "the squad is causing us to lose". The Clintonite wing, which brought us a decade of republican policy accomplishments in the 1990s and not much else, continue to try to steer the democratic party except without a rudder or a sail plan. What's your plan other than "not Trump" and "no to 'progressivism' (whatever that is)"?
