Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville argued on Friday that the changing economy has left young people behind, and that Democrats must ditch radical cultural agendas to win their support.
Commentators on both the left and right have warned that there is an affordability crisis as young people struggle to join the middle class and obtain the same lifestyle previous generations did.

Carville then called out Democrats, saying they must stop getting distracted by unpopular culture-war issues and refocus.
