That's text book poor messaging infrastructure on democrats part !!!

That's text book poor framing and not flooding an information zone with information Americans need to hear about that issue.

That is democrats fault, not the media not some aliens or slogans or whatever else we want to blame today

We don't attack our political opponents by fabricating lies about them, and repeating those lies until they are perceived to be facts.

- We don't need to!!! We don't attack them by establishing the bad they do either! Look at TM in VA, he didn't try to associate the generic GQP candidate with Putin's Whore ... FIRST !! He only did it after he started sinking in the pools, we need to

We tell voters the truth, instead of telling them what they want to hear. We warn them about the consequences of climate change, instead of assuring them that it's just another scam being perpetrated by 'elitist' scientists.

- That's great but the "truth" isn't what stokes voters fear is and "Republicans want to take away your health care" is not only the truth but its fear invoking. We CAN do that and should .... we don't !!!

We don't ignore the plight of the hungry, the sick, and the poor while claiming to be righteous Christians who are 'doing the Lord's work'.

- Great, has nothing to do with dems lack of good messaging infrastructure

We don't encourage voters to believe that putting more guns in their hands makes them safer, or that their use equals protecting their freedoms. We don't tell voters that taking the law into their own hands is tantamount to upholding justice.

- Great, has nothing to do with dems lack of good messaging infrastructure and attacking with truth first

We don't demonize 'the other side' by suggesting they are Satan-worshippers who sex-traffic children.

- We ***SHOULD*** demonize the other side with the bullshit they do !! We don't do it effectively **FIRST**, its not a constant hammer we use. See TM 2021 VA Gov run ... r

We try to appeal to the intelligence and common sense of people who possess neither.

- Great, has nothing to do with dems lack of good messaging infrastructure and not attacking with truth first

We rely on facts and scientific knowledge, instead of pandering to those who are too stupid to accept the former and/or understand the latter. We don't cater to the uninformed by feeding them even more misinformation; we don't tell the ignorant that their ignorance is actually a sign of their superiority.

- Great, has nothing to do with dems lack of good messaging infrastructure and not attacking with truth first

We don't attempt to persuade voters that all of their grievances are attributable to immigrants, or people of colour, or those of a different faith or sexual orientation.

- We DO NOT ***LOUDLY*** tell voters this is wrong and establish the GQP does it first !! We don't!! We allow them to attack us and define use first (see post mortems of 2020 down ballot races were a majority of voters said dem messages were vague in a multitude of studies)

We don't espouse 'easy fixes' to the nation's woes, like banning certain books or firing certain teachers.

- Great, We're the "good guys" that has nothing to do with dems lack of good messaging infrastructure and not attacking with truth first.

We encourage unity, instead of admonishing citizens to see each other as enemies. We promote the concept of finding common ground, instead of 'standing one's ground' by using violence to settle scores.

I am tired of hearing how the Democrats don't know how to 'message' in the current climate of people who aren't the least bit interested in hearing any message that doesn't justify their racism, their homophobia, their xenophobia, and that doesn't glorify those traits by equating them to patriotism and love of God and country.

I'm tired of looking at the fact that even when we're doing great a majority of America doesn't think we are because of a lack of messaging and actions that get the message out.

The economy is text book roaring other than inflation, we're losing the economic message and we shouldn't blame "we're the good guys" on that.

In a sane world - which we have long since left behind - the only 'message' that should mean anything is the fact that Donald Trump and the Republican party organized, funded, supported and actively participated in the attempted overthrow of our democracy.

In a sane world would ANYONE be asking if there was a DOJ investigation after 911?

Right ... the answer is no, the reason why we were asking a month ago because we didn't know.

Everything else - including promoting the idea that Democrats don't have the 'right message' - is just the noise that bullshit makes when it hits the fan.

Then why do only 64% of ****DEMOCRATS**** think voter suppression is a problem ?!!?
