Not that there is any really good Republican alternative, but education is the single biggest issue I would vote against Dems on if I could.

They put pretty much every other consideration ahead of actual education when it comes to the education system

Education is a tool they use to indoctrinate and bring about progressive social change..

this is hilarious.
I'm a teacher. No department of education, teacher's union, or teacher is nationalizing wokeness. We just want your children to behave so we can teach the basics. We just want your children to leave their phones at home. We want your children to respect us and refrain from using disrespectful language so other children aren't traumatized by your inability to parent.
Is that too much to ask?

I think Bernie and AOC and David Hogg should create a new party that's inclusive of working class MAGAs who are being hurt by Trump's fascist/dystopian policies that are drawing us closer every day to Orwell's 1984.

The Democrats' failures include requiring that its members pass a purity test that is too rigid. For example, throwing out Minnesota Senator Al Franken for sexual harassment while Trump was accused of rape and many far more serious sexual attacks on women was incredibly short-sighted. The Dems should have let Franken apologize and continue his work as a very effective critic of Trump and the GOP's rampant corruption.

And the DNC threw out David Hogg because he dared to threaten the old farts who run the DNC with such total incompetence that they allowed a convicted felon to be elected POTUS.

This nee party must work to get rid of Citizens United, which allows oligarchs to buy elections. We must have public funding for all elections to eliminate the outsize influence of wealthy elites and corporations on our elections.

They do support some important voting rights litigation without which it would be increasingly difficult to win in some states. They are often the lead pocketbook on a lot of those cases.
I’m not sure how much they do as far as crafting candidate messages. I don’t think they play much role there.

They should. Someone needs to organize the Dems on messaging. Punchy, short, to-the-point messaging. The Republicans all repeat theirs. Dems on the other hand are all over the map with no consistent or coherent messaging. Anyone who knows anyone at all in Dem politics should be listening to me on this. It's one of their BIGGEST liabilities right now. Republicans eat their lunch on messaging.

Genuinely curious what messaging you would suggest.

For starters:
We stand strong against illegal immigration.
We stand strong against crime and believe in prison time for violent crimes.
We stand strong for all children and will do what's needed to ensure they receive the education and support they need in well run schools with teachers who are dedicated to their profession.

Democrats can SAY that all they want but their actions are in direct conflict with that message.

How? Dems wanted an immigration bill and Trump stopped it. Also, Obama deported more people than any other president. Please humor me with Dems who support violent criminals. Don't bring up Defund the police b/c VERY FEW cities actually did that. Unfortunately, we were bad at getting that message out. We believe in education. Charter schools and vouchers are not going to be better for education. It will just cost a lot more. Closing the Dept of Ed is going to end badly. We have a Secretary who thinks AI is A1. Please.

From the middle of looked like Democrats wanted to take away a campaign issue with the immigration bill. Sure, Trump put politics before country but that's what Trump does

Democrats are associated with the BLM riots, most riots really.

Charter programs in Blue jurisdictions tend to be a lot better than charter programs in red jurisdictions. Ironic really

Dude go back to maga. BLM? Nonexistent riots? No one is talking to you. Go back to chasing day laborers, putting Israel first and worship Trump.
