(139 posts)My struggle with the Democrats is their inability to frame their messages. Most of the time they are on the right side of the argument but they seem to fall short in getting their message out to everyday Americans.
I attribute their failure to their focus on the policy and not the con.
For example - the message they are using is about DACA. They are trying to appeal to people's sympathies. That's the wrong message because people equate that to political correctness. Their message should be about America's honor in keeping our word and how this Administration and this Republican party has damaged that honor not only domestically but internationally (I mentioned this on another seed).
That message may garner more support because it's about America's reputation and trustworthiness not about the politically correct thing to do.
