"struggling to press an effective message against President Trump"

What? They told us Trump was going to be a nazi dicktator
Trump said he would be a nazi dicktator

What message does a dicktator listen to? His own.

Klobuchar comes across as really unlikable which makes her the obvious frontrunner for the Democratic nomination in 2028.

spacealpaka.bsky.social•4 days ago

Again with the fucking eggs

delbertgseasons.bsky.social•4 days ago

They are really expensive though. But yeah not our biggest problem

Amy needs to be doing more against Elon and his dismantling of these Government agencies! Democrats need better leadership!

formulafan2025.bsky.social•4 days ago

You GIGANTIC FLAMING ASSHOLES. You literally are the problem. Instead of actually using the word INFLATION, you are sanewashing and refusing to actually address what's happening. Even with this, instead of talking about inflation and the stupidity, you are talking about someone else talking about it

STOP TALKIN BOUT EGGS

Seriously what is wrong with you dipshits

Talk to people under 50. Those who aren’t sitting in homes financed with mortgages at 3% or less. Those who are working minimum wage jobs. Ask them about renting and buying homes. Who’s going to build the homes we need? It’s much more than eggs.

Because it distracts people from realizing she’s as all talk. Remember, watch what they do and not what they say.

Balanced coverage is printing up everything Republicans are saying about something and critiquing how Democrats are saying things about that same thing.

Inflation is transitory. Its really nothing to be concerned about.

“It’s the Democrats fault that we only hammer incumbents for high prices when the incumbents are Democrats. Why can’t they message better?”

peteworld.bsky.social•4 days ago

oh and by the way we are the reason the Dems struggled because we spent all summer putting out "Biden old" and fake inflation (this GOP'er and Klan member says she drove 200 miles bc prices) stories

maddness.bsky.social•4 days ago

Amy Amy Amy … you are losing relevance … interviews such as these are meaningless - As was your bill to make the bald eagle the national bird (and crowing about it) all the while the emperor is scorching the earth

WAKE UP !

gartmartin9.bsky.social•4 days ago

Trump repeatedly stated that he would bring down prices on day one. He's been an absolute failure.

NYT: Let's frame this, not as Trump lying--but blame the Dems for "failing" to craft an effective message.

NYT is full Vichy for Trump--24/7

restandvest.bsky.social•4 days ago

You mean your newspaper literally talked non stop about prices and eggs and now you’ve gone silent

Ever seen someone talking about how tragic a house fire is after they toss a cigarette in the bushes next to said house? yea.

Why did YOU stop talking about eggs? You wanted the racist moron back for ad dollars and clicks. Not the brilliant and sane woman.

sobechi.bsky.social•4 days ago

When there are Nazis in the White House, the eggs are way less important.

How about you ask her why the Dems seem so impotent right now, even though they're in a stronger position than the GOP of 2009?

bartbruijnesteijn.bsky.social•4 days ago

It wil get worse, far worse for the average household, Trump will not eat one egg less and loose no sleep over it

horseknuckler.bsky.social•4 days ago

Eggs are egglematic

macmanius.bsky.social•4 days ago

Probably 'cause they're expensive. I mean, I may be wrong, I admit I didn't read the article, but my guess is that she's talking about eggs because they cost less before than they do now, as opposed to now, when they cost more than they did then.

Czar Trump started a revolution of reformation and launched a campaign against international terrorism in the world and corruption which means no wars conflicts and financial corruption which goes in the pockets of thugs politicians warmongers brokers gangsters bankers and high ranking officials

Ever wondered with the subject of inflation suddenly disappeared from the right wing’s loudspeakers on January 20?

mcbonner.bsky.social•4 days ago

Is Fox News talking about inflation? Fox News talks, and the rest of the media follows absolutely a significant problem for the country.

ckryanco.bsky.social•4 days ago

Perfect example of why we need a NEW Democrat party. Egg prices spiked largely because of bird flu. They will eventually go down when chicken population recovers. Trump will falsely take credit for that and Democrats will have egg on their faces.

rockmn.bsky.social•4 days ago

The Senator is right. Trump and Musk are failing the small town mayor test: can you take care of the trash? Can you clear the street of snow? Can you run a functioning water and sewer department? No, they can’t. They don’t know how to run a chicken coop.
