          With the notable exception of Zohran Mamdani, a left-winger who got attention around the world when he was elected as mayor of New York, Democrats have barely been visible abroad.

          But in the run-up to the midterm elections in November, that may be changing. Half a dozen prominent Democrats traveled to the Munich Security Conference this past weekend.

          The governor of California, Gavin Newsom, told European leaders that the state was a “stable and reliable partner” on climate change. Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut condemned Trump for alienating “our friends in Europe.” Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona tried to reassure those friends: “I think we can fix this. I think we can get past this. It’s going to take a new president.”

          There were so many potential presidential contenders in attendance, one political strategist joked that Munich had turned into Iowa, where White House hopefuls flock at the start of the primary season.

          Which Democrats end up running in 2028 is still a wide open question. The more immediate question is what alternative vision do Democrats have to offer American voters for their country and the world? And how different does it have to be from the one that lost in the last election?

          One counter project not just to MAGA but also to past Democratic politics is emerging on the populist left of the party, which was energized by Mamdani’s win. I spoke to Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, who has long been considered a potential presidential candidate and was closely followed by the world’s media in Munich.

          Whether a version of Ocasio-Cortez’s vision will prevail on the leading Democratic ticket in 2028 is far from certain. Newsom, who has vocally opposed a wealth tax in California, leads the Democratic field in many recent polls (though it’s very early days).

          And there are other uncertainties: How smoothly will the midterm elections in November go? One concern voiced privately in the hallways in Munich was that if they go badly for Trump, might he try to contest the results, as he did in the 2020 presidential election?
