[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think most Americans are MAGA.  But I definitely think most Americans don’t want what the Democrats are selling.  They need to move way, way more center and drop the “progressive” agenda to win again. [/quote]

I agree that the Democrats should move more center but, building on your point, Americans don't want want the GOP/MAGA is selling either. They need to move more center as well. The Democrats will win in 2026 and 2028 as the political pendulum naturally swings.[/quote]

The center doesn’t necessarily mean status quo, incremental change at the margins though. It actually might mean bold proposals that make life better for people in the center of the bell curve. [/quote]

But the democrat way to “make life better” is to increase things the government provides. Free this, free that, etc. I think most people don’t want to see a bunch of social programs ran by the government (at the expense of those that pay taxes).  [/quote]

You're deeply mistaken there.  If anything they already take a lot of what they get from the government for granted and would be suffering and screaming bloody murder if it were taken away.  And isn't it Republicans who love to talk about things like "we shouldn't do x when we have homeless veterans" and who think the government needs to do more when there's a hurricane that destroys communities?  Let's face it - the average Republican doesn't actually have any problem with taxpayer dollars going to social programs.  They just get manipulated into being upset about it when their favorite online conservative talking head runs around claiming it's all fraud waste and abuse benefitting illegal mexicans and lazy black drug abusing inner city baby mommas or whatever confabulated bogeyman du jour.
