Dr. Khan, I love your vision for restoring competitive markets, but given today’s political and financial realities, it seems nearly impossible for a reform oriented party to hold power long enough to create structural change. Even within the the past year, we’ve already seen elements of your approach diluted, such as in the handling of the Amazon case.

Even if future Democratic candidates benefit from backlash to Trump-era policies, their reliance on major donors like Mark Cuban and Reid Hoffman (who favor lighter-touch regulation) seem to constrain serious antitrust enforcement.

What path do you see for the coexistence of the Democratic party’s insistence on maintaining a supply of income from corporate donors and stricter antitrust enforcement?
