governance

Ben Olinsky, senior vice president of structural reform and governance at the liberal Center for American Progress, said that how the Senate handles this moment — where Trump is simultaneously putting forward deeply questionable candidates and demanding the Senate allow them to sail through without vetting — “will tell us a lot about what’s going to happen in the next couple of years.”

Each one must pay administration, governance and management costs, which can build up – last year, they increased by £28m.

The goal here seems to be finding people who are uniquely unfit for these jobs, both to rile up liberals and to flush out any Republicans with remaining loyalties to the concept of responsible governance.

Perhaps, then, the story about big cities softening up on Trump reflects not the salience of place and an attention to local governance, but a decline of those things, and a regression of the metropolitan voter toward the national mean.

Perhaps the greatest self-made Democratic governance problem with an obvious solution is the housing shortage, but there is no correlation between housing inflation over the past five years and the way people voted.
