Francesca Fiorentini questions The Bulwark's role in Democratic strategy

Her fast-starting commentary asks whether an anti-Trump alliance should also mean handing former Republicans influence over the party's direction.

No One Should Listen To The Bulwark

Joining a coalition and getting to steer it are different things, Francesca Fiorentini argues in her latest commentary. The distinction is at the center of "No One Should Listen To The Bulwark," which drew about 62,000 views in its first 12 hours, already well beyond her regular uploads' usual full-day audience.

Fiorentini focuses on The Bulwark's Tim Miller and Sarah Longwell, questioning the influence of former Republicans on Democratic strategy ahead of the midterms. She argues that opposition to Donald Trump does not make their political priorities compatible with the progressive movement, or establish that their electoral advice deserves greater weight.

The comments are unusually busy too, with more than twenty times the channel's usual first-day total already posted. Viewers discuss the distinction between temporary alliances and shared policy goals, along with how past political decisions should affect a pundit's credibility.

That question of Democratic direction also runs through Fiorentini's other Sunday uploads. "Francesca's California Election Guide" offers her ballot recommendations, while "No More Submissive Politicians w/ Jennifer Welch *HOT BUTTON TEASER*" shares part of a conversation about Democrats' willingness to challenge Republican power.
