1. Another perfect opportunity for Dem messaging!

We need to be everywhere, all over the media, repeatedly telling the public that those benefits they're enjoying are thanks to Democrats & Democrats only, not a single Republican voted for them.

It's like we need a full-time PR firm to counter the right-wing Republican firehose of lies & spin & stop them from setting the narrative.

4. "Because Republicans DON'T want to help you."

That’s my favorite new messaging.

Cuz they DON’T.

And they don’t think they should have to. It’s just not in their nature. Or in their cockamamie selfish short-sighted mean-spirited “philosophy”:
You’re on your own.
Pull yourself up by your own bootstraps.
“Rugged individualism” dontchaknow.
We’re not here to help anybody. What - you think we’re chumps or something?
Go get your own - don’t bother us.

Otherwise you’re nothing but lazy moochers just looking for handouts.

And while they’re at it, they’ll likely remind you how “Christian” they are - certainly moreso than you. After all, Jesus had nothing to do with poor people...
... or the sick...
...or the hungry...
...or the needy...
...or the outcast...

2. How to get the message to repug voters that their party does not want them helped in any way

5. No message works for a trumpcult that believes Democrats only do evil communist things.

But yeah, they'll take the checks. And the vaccines.

3. But...

Remember Green Eggs and Ham?

6. Republicans

All waiting by their mailboxes for their stimulus!

7. I'm concerned.

8. Too bad the relief bill

is not divided on partisan lines. Democrats get help with their financial woes since Democrats created the bill. Republicans...oh, sorry, that leader you put in office voted against it, too bad for you. They reap the benefits of what we do and still cling to being Republicans. Horrible, stupid people.
