The Rules Have Changed
Emotional identity drives successful politics.
You sensed it early, and you were right. Now it’s time to put this to work.

constant pressure to look organized and credible,
people working hard, but the party still feels scattered
These aren’t separate problems. They’re what happens when there’s no shared center — no emotional authority.
