Summary
The previous chapters set the stage for this one. In those chapters, we saw party activists divided over the perceived lessons of 2016. We saw party officers arguing over matters of election interpretation and race. We saw party donors split into factions. We saw media narratives undermining how many Democrats, especially women, saw themselves as fitting into the party and what sorts of candidates they should support.
