My Unicorn Problem (NYT)

-Dylan Stump

Analysis:

This NYT op-ed piece from Paul Krugman criticizes the Sanders campaign as being entirely disconnected from the political reality of the US, making the argument that while embracing the European socialism model sounds nice, it's impossible to even attempt to replicate that in the US. He uses the term "magical unicorns" to deride Sanders' for what he percieves are completely unrealistic policy goals and a failure to understand how hard it would be to implement them
