[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of the GOP in that chamber know that the speech was all lies. Look at what Jerry Vance and Marco Rubio said about Trump before they decided to sell their souls. These people are the most craven among us. They know that supporting Trump leads to a meteoric rise in power and money. That's all this is. They care about nobody but themselves. [/quote] Yes we know. What has to stop is the focus on reaffirming what we know to be true to ourselves and other like minded folks. We need to start putting ourselves in the shoes of his supporters, what speaks to them, how to speak to them and approaching our issues that way. No one is ever going to say they are against government waste, excellent platform, the reality doesn’t seem to matter. [b]Biden was killing it his last term on almost all fronts[/b], but all he ever spoke about was things most Americans couldn’t relate too, and the Dems allowed the right to dictate the platforms. I’ll never forget the immigrant gas station workers I was speaking to who told me they were voting for Trump. They said they felt he didn’t think they were helpless government moochers and they didn’t want to hear anymore about a few people who didn’t know if they were a man or a woman, they didn’t care what these people were, they just didn’t want to hear about it anymore. this was their take away from what he was saying. It was profound. These are the folks the Dems need to be able to reach. I don’t understand what they don’t understand about that. [/quote] Not sure how true this is. He ignored multiple letters from D governors asking him to take action on immigration until the end when he realized it was a top issue for voters. He sidelined Harris by appointing her to look at immigration without giving her any support for making changes or cover when no changes were forthcoming. There was slow uptake to the CHIP act. He was comfortable militarizing our economy (watch his Oval Office address where he says supporting Ukraine and Israel boosts American jobs). He did not hold Netanyahu to any account for war crimes. He did not serve as a bridge President as he promised. He kept talking about how great the economy was when people were feeling pain of inflation. He greeted Trump at the White House with huge smiles. Sure the mainstream D party can hold up little paddles and blame the focus on Trans rights. That isn't going to get us very far. We need to stop saying our policies were fine and start looking at their problems. [/quote]
