Remember the 1990s, when everybody thought liberal democracy was the only game in town and the end of history was upon us? The near-assassination of former President Donald Trump has buttressed, instead, a feeling that crisis is upon us. Trust in public schools, banks, large firms, the news media and even religious organizations have similarly plummeted since the 1970s.

It must include a commitment to close the cultural chasm that has opened between the Democratic Party and many working-class Americans.
