Mina Kim: 民主党目前缺乏明确的领导力，并且在应对特朗普政府方面缺乏清晰的策略。许多民主党人感到沮丧，认为党内没有统一的战略来应对特朗普的极端政策。这种领导力的真空导致党内意见分歧严重，无法形成有效的应对措施。 Reid Epstein: 民主党在2024年大选失利后，缺乏对失败原因的统一解释，导致党内分裂和领导力真空。党内各派系在如何应对特朗普政府的问题上意见不一，部分人主张专注于日常经济问题，而另一些人则关注更广泛的政府结构性问题。这种分歧使得民主党难以形成统一的策略，进一步加剧了党内的混乱。 Marisa Lagos: 民主党目前采取的策略杂乱无章，缺乏统一性，导致选民感到沮丧。党内缺乏像特朗普那样强有力的领导者，导致意见分歧严重。许多民主党人感到担忧，认为特朗普政府的行动迅速且极端，而民主党缺乏有效的应对措施。

Who is the leader of the Democratic party? It was a question that appeared to stump Minnesota governor and vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz in a CNN interview last week, and he’s not the only one who’s feeling a leadership void. Only 1 in 10 Democrats say their party has a solid strategy to deal with the Trump administration, according to a recent poll by the opinion research firm Blueprint. Do the Democrats need an economic populist like Bernie Sanders? A tested progressive like AOC? A centrist coalition? We hear who you think should take the party’s reins and why.
