Lots of non-populist conservatives think economic policy should be focused on benefitting families and communities! Just because we think Oren and other populists are wrong about means doesn't mean we don't share their ends. So why such demonization?
I'm not demonizing anyone. But I think it's obvious that the conservative consensus needs to be reconsidered. The intellectuals who led us into the Iraq War and boosted China into the WTO did a lot of damage to the country—and my generation will pay the price.

We can quibble about nuance, terminology, and the precise delineations within that group, but the broader point stands: the 2000-2015 worldview is gone; creative thinking needs to replace it. I welcome anyone—reformicons, populists, etc.—who contributes to that discussion.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
