'Good trouble': The Democrats carrying out civil disobedience over abortion rights have the right idea.
There is no probable short-term solution to the problem, given the difficulty of beating Republicans in midterm elections while Biden oversees an inflation-rocked economy. But over the medium-term, the Democratic Party needs to start thinking creatively about how to galvanize mass mobilization.
There are, however, limitations to how much Democratic lawmakers can get away with civil disobedience without running into the problem of delegitimizing their own role in society. Mass civil disobedience is where movement politics, not party politics, shines. But the spirit of the action is right. Ultimately one hopes Democrats will channel this attitude of challenging institutions through the way they approach governance and institutional reform.
