Culture wars have been working for the Republican Party. They no longer talk about economics or deficits, or trade policy, or foreign policy. It is all about phony culture wars. I do think we should look and see what the Republicans have done with culture wars and take that part of that fight that most Americans agree with us whether it`s guns, or whether it`s reproductive freedom, or whether it`s access to vote. Those are all important issues in culture wars, and we should make them much more front and center than we have.
