What’s next for the left? The right wonders

By Bria Felicien

1. Do Democrats Want an Anti-Trump, or Their Own Trump?

From Politico: "Gwen Graham could be Florida's first female governor and a national leader in her party—but only if earnestness hasn't gone out of style."

2. The Future of the American Left

From New York Times: "Progressives are set to run into significant growing pains."

3. The Media Is Killing the Democratic Party

From Washington Free Beacon: "The more the party falls for the self-flattery, empty rhetoric, question begging, and maze-like complexity of media narratives the less likely it is to recoup the power it once enjoyed."
