On CNN’s “The Arena” Thursday, Representative Debbie Dingell (D-MI) said it won’t be “enough” for Democrats to oppose President Donald Trump in this year’s midterm elections.
According to the Michigan Democrat lawmaker, voters will expect more for the 2026 elections and the 2028 presidential election cycle.
“You’ve been saying for a long time that Democrats need a ‘Project 2028’ to set their agenda,” host Jim Scutto said. “Did you hear elements of this in Mamdani’s speech?”
Dingell responded, “I did, and I think that’s what we should do. It’s not enough for us to be anti-President Trump. People want to know what we’re doing and how we’re going to do things. So I think it’s very important that we start making it clear what we’re for as we’re going into the congressional elections for ’26, and the presidential candidates are going to have to be very strong on this.”
