Vibes win politics these days. It’s possible to have great policy that leads to great vibes. But if you have great policy but no vibes, then you may as well not have the policy to begin with. And lastly, great vibes without any policy is possible.

I’m expecting that there is nothing there because if there is, then Dems would truly be IDIOTS for not doing something with it

See below from Pew. Dem/gop split between union and non union basically the same. Maybe Dems shouldn’t say “fuck you” to them, but at the very least, we should stop bending over backwards and expending political capital on them. It gives us nothing

Speaking as a Dem, I’m coming pretty close to not supporting unions. Politically, it gets us nothing since union voters are maga anyway. Practically, I think it prevents equitable change such as a federal minimum wage increase since so many people are already taken care of by unions. Fuck em

I hope this has provisions to keep potus from just reintroducing the tariffs and restarting the 60 day clock every time it expires

He thinks he’s right so he wants to show the world he’s right. That’s all there is to it.

If Trump tries the vp route, then dems need to stick Obama on a ticket

This nickname isn’t going to resonate with people who aren’t perpetually online. Like, what’s the whiskey all about?
I would’ve gone with something like “updater-in-chief.” It references something directly tied to the incident (I was updating people in real time!) and diminishes his role

Do u have an iPhone? All you need to do is take a picture of text and highlight it in the photos app, copy and paste

My bet is: the attack plan was on a classified computer (SIPR). It’s a separate network and impossible to send to a personal phone. So he took a picture of the timeline with his personal phone and copy pasted the text into signal. Which means for a minute, these plans were in his iCloud Photos acct

No. The gop secret sauce is they pick an issue or two and they hammer it relentlessly for months if not years. Easier since Dems don’t have a new scandal every day but their persistence works. We need to do the same thing. Signal gate needs to be in the news cycle for months

We’re not going to find a smoking gun that points either to lab leak or wet market. There’s actually a lot of evidence to suggest it was the lab leak (circumstantial, just as the evidence is for a wet market origin). So, dismissing lab leak out of hand like you’re doing is a betrayal of reason

Wont manufacturers spread out the tariffs such that the average cost of all their cars will rise, rather than seeing prices rise only on the cars that are imported?

The attack plans would have been on a separate secured network and impossible to send to Hegseth’s phone. So if he did copy and paste, he probably took a picture and then copied the text from the pic. Which would mean classified material is also sitting in Hegseth’s iCloud Photos app 🤣

This is more concerning to me than the leaks of classified info

Yessss

Okay if no classified information was discussed then I guess Goldberg should feel free to release the entire transcript of the discussion 👍🏻

What I want to know is did all of these 15,000 vote for Kamala? Cuz if they mostly did, then there’s nothing here. It’s just Dems going to a Dem convention big whoop.
On the other hand if many of these 15,000 didn’t vote for Kamala… okay maybe there’s something, but also WHERE WERE YOU IN NOV?

If the Supreme Court upholds this then we need to fight fire with fire and not with one hand tied behind our back
comment in response to

We dismiss this at our own risk. The point is that their ranks are growing despite all of the treasonous and destabilizing shit that Trump does. Very concerning

What’s the end game? Come September if gop passes a bill that zeros out the budget for DC, dept of education, and whatever other dept they don’t like, are we just going to fold again cuz of the threat of firing federal workers? We need to reframe the narrative so that firing feds is untenable
comment in response to
post
We continue to suck at the PR/messaging/marketing side of things. I do think that if we shut down right now, gop will be successful in framing this as a Dem shut down. It doesn’t need to be that way though, this can easily be flipped on them but we haven’t set the conditions to do that

Yeah when I consider the possibility that we are dealing with 4 years of Trump right now because we held the line on trans participation in women’s sports, it makes me want to throw up

If the brand has truly turned toxic, the 3/4+ of autonomous vehicle value will also decline because no one will want to buy/use Tesla…

It’s okay, let them make these numbers up because hopefully at some point people start asking the question “you saved $x per family, so what’s in it for me???”

If Dems don’t start accusing Trump of turning the fbi into his personal gestapo, then I give up, there’s no hope for the party’s comms strategy
