Biden Republicans

Rahm Emanuel, former Chicago mayor and White House chief of staff, writes in the Wall Street Journal that “this campaign looks like a repeat of 1980” because Democrats “have an opportunity to chisel off a demographic that will come to be known as Biden Republicans.”

“Democrats have the chance to achieve a generational transformation. Beyond broadening the coalition to include moderate voters who oppose President Trump, we could deepen our base by turning disaffected Republicans into Democrats.”

“The question is whether Democrats will let these voters migrate back to the GOP after November, or whether our party will become their permanent safe harbor.”
