[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The left struggles because their messages suck.  [/quote]

Their messages don't suck, they just require nuance to understand, which doesn't play well with the segment of the country that is currently under the thrall of the Republican party.

Republicans message with the subtlety of a cudgel. What resonates more with a lower-income, low-education, rural white voter? "IMMIGRANTS BAD, BUILD THE WALL!!!" or "Well, actually, immigrants play an essential role in our labor force, and there is reams of evidence that immigrants - legal or otherwise - neither displace the native-born, nor reduce their wages. In fact, all evidence points to the fact that over a sufficiently long time horizon, job opportunities and wages [i]increase[/i] for the native born."[/quote]

Two of the most overused words during this administration is "nuance" and "context."

In order to "clean up" the disastrous messaging from the left (which usually is correct in promoting their policies), they say that people need to understand "nuance" and put them in "context."
No, the messages just suck.  As do the policies.

And, BTW - more and more LEGAL immigrants are voting Republican.  There is a reason for that.  [/quote]

Serious problems require serious solutions, not monosyllabic catch phrases[/quote]
