I’m tired of hearing consultants say that an issue is popular right now so we shouldn’t go against it. No…we need to get to work changing public opinion and stop following it. https://open.substack.com/pub/fpwellman/p/its-the-fcking-nail?r=3vp7b&utm_medium=ios

Better press helps the public focus. In return, the public needs to find a passion and go after it hard for more change, less talk.
① Pressuring vulnerable Senate Republicans.
② Targeting moderate/establishment House Republicans in districts Biden won in 2020.
③ Mobilizing Republican and independent voters.
④ Going after corporate donors.
Etc- ???????
That motivates people more than tepid support for good ideas for as long as they're polling well.
At this time, Article 1 is letting Article 2 do Article 1's job.
I don't think that's what our founders wanted.
All at the expense of the working/middle class. Higher taxes, higher tolls, higher groceries, higher medical bills, higher insurance...
We are suffering so they can buy another yacht.
Keep the calls to Congress coming. The Dems are catching up, finally, that average American Citizens do not want what Trump and Musk are peddling, because they are screwing everybody, not just radial lefties
Important universal issues matter, not the hype. True freedom of speech, a healthy sustainable economy, voting rights and affordable education and healthcare.
Get rid of the consultants who do nothing but lead Dems astray while making piles of $.

And get the has beens like Carville, Axelrod, and Rahm Emmanual (for the love of god, where'd they dig him up from) off the air with their outdated stupid hot takes.
"Don't listen to the experts' don't plan; just go do it!"
Really Fred;
Language, and attitude!
The GOP has been planning this since Bush Jr and his folks started replacing local and state people with GOPers!
We need BALLS and ACTION, and FIRST A PLAN!
Late 1960s with Nixon.
Civil rights and women’s rights caused all the male republicans dangling parts to shrivel.
Perhaps this is the moment.. American culture has degraded.. and now that evil has arrived it will serve as a reminder to revere goodness.
But America passed by the Harris message.
Maybe it needs to get even more evil to see it.
I've shoveled hog shit (Bull too) I know it Well.
We need to open up the firehose across the entire spectrum of issues - popular or not.
Loud as possible.
We need to wake up those not full on in the Cult
Tim Walz was onto a winner with branding the GOP as a bunch of creepy weirdos but they dropped it when it should have been a message that was pushed at every level
Maybe those Tens of Thousands of people should've DONE SOMETHING!
The first step to stop the power grab by Trump, Musk, and the GOP: making your voice heard. Public opinion matters!
Some Dems thought working with Rs is what we wanted. They get it now, we Don't! Gloves off. Hardball. Momentum is swinging our way.
I emailed my chucklefuck congressman and found it impossible to refrain from calling him a jackass. Maybe I should've used chatgpt to soften it 😅
We woke up the Dem Members. No budget help! yay. Rs own it.
Trump and Musk's firehose of EOs not only exhausted us, but it revived the Resistance! MSM won't report it, but it is happening. Gas Pedal on floor...
In other words, engagement is low
Senator Schiff and Murkowski both have commented that calls matter. Keep them coming.
we should all increase our engagement, and the fact that most people don't arguably makes it more valuable for those of us who do.
Believe it's fitting.
