[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a former republican from a red state with MAGA parents. Here is what they need to do to win:

-Give up on increasing taxes for a cycle. Don’t touch trump’s tax code bc they think it helps them (it doesn’t) 
-don’t focus on trans issues / pronouns. Most people in these red states have never met a trans person and they just don’t care 
-focus on military, securing our nation 
-focus on a strong immigration plan
-course correct everything T is doing. How will you fix federal funding? How will you protect our elderly? How will you help our college age kids? This is your largest base of voters.  
-Get a Tim Walz type in. We need someone who has lived on a teachers salary. Limousine Liberals were the reason I hated democrats for so long. I was struggling financially and then someone making $1mil a year was trying to raise my taxes and just didn’t get my struggle. 
-childcare: if you can make raising kids more affordable, you might be able to win some red state voters. You have to shape this in a way that doesn’t hurt kid free people. [/quote]

So basically just be a Republican but not be Trump.  What is what they will be up against in 2028.   How would the Dems be different?[/quote]

This is exactly why we lost.  Trying to be the 2024 version of a sane Republican is just being a 1980-90s Republican. We need Democratic ideals, but with way better messaging and way less letting the most progressive parts of the party represent the entire party.  We should work with progressives but not let them out front giving the appearance of control. Part of that was trumps doing, controlling messaging and forcing democrats to be reactionary, but it was the fault of the Democrats. [/quote]
