"Fred Rogers famously told us, in times of emergency and despair, to 'look for the helpers.' It’s really good advice, but I will note: it is advice for children. If you’re an adult in the coming crisis, we are going to need a lot of helpers." - John Oliver

You’re at a protest and saw someone do something that you don’t approve of, that might get them in trouble with the cops? No you didn’t. Mind your business.

They say they don't have money for healthcare, food, housing, retirement, childcare, they always have money to give to the military and police to turn their weapons on us

The Trump regime is stealing money from taxpayers to fund these people, paid to cheer him and to hurt whoever he wants to hurt. He'll steal more money to give himself a birthday parade. OUR money taken from Medicaid, Social Security, cancer research, school lunches.

Schiff keeps voting for Trump's nominees and bills

Thank you for voting against Trump's nominee for Assistant Secretary of Defense on the day this news came out. Please fight for your constituent Andry Hernandez Romero, who was disappeared by this administration

This is you and a bunch of other Democrats voting to confirm Dale Marks to be an Assistant Secretary of Defense on the same day the Secretary of Defense said he'd take Harvey Milk's name off the ship www.senate.gov/legislative/...

You voted for the Trump nominee for Defense right after this happened. On the first week of Pride Month no less. Don't vote for Trump nominees

Indeed Dems tried very hard to tell voters that their lives were just fine, that everything around them was great, that the status quo was the best they could ever expect. I think people heard that but it wasn't a winning message!
comment in response to post
I think this may be why they're so set on playing dead- the more Trump destroys everything, the more returning to the previous status quo can become a big signature policy. They don't want to change the platform so they wait for the alternative to get worse
comment in response to post
The wonkiness is a side effect of not wanting to really change things. So they can tweak it a tiny bit and have a tax credit or two but can't say like Trump did that they're going to burn down the whole system and remake it
comment in response to post
I think it wasn't too hard to understand, she was running on the status quo, and Trump was running on retribution and fascism. Dems literally can't have a big signature policy because their whole thing is they don't want to make major changes.

childcare subsidies, money for startup businesses, continuing the genocide, cracking down on immigration

Schiff literally just voted to advance Trump’s pick for Assistant Secretary of Defense. You keep talking about how corrupt Trump is and then voting for his agenda.

You just voted for Trump's pick for Assistant Secretary of Defense! Right after Trump's Secretary of Defense did this!

The core finding? "We do not find any evidence that accommodative strategies (adopting rhetoric/positions of right) reduce radical right support. If anything, our results suggest that they lead to more voters defecting to the radical right."
