Seems like Democratic messaging could be pretty simple, right?
I refuse to support a government that thinks it’s okay for masked thugs to snatch people off the street without due process.
That doesn’t address everything, but that covers a pretty big issue, right?

Remember, when Republicans win, it’s a mandate by “real Americans” who live in “real America.” And when Democrats win, it’s some sort of fluke that ultimately Democrats should apologize for.

Fucking Van Jones on CNN saying Mamdani “really missed an opportunity” immediately after Mamdani’s awesome speech. Basically: “He should have made sure to say something unifying.” Guess what, he DID unify. He unified people who felt powerless with the power of winning.

Worth repeating: Anti-trans politics are a losing issue.
57% of all ad spending by Republicans in the Virginia governors race was on anti trans ads. Just an incredibly mismanaged campaign. Anti-trans politics are a losing issue.

Sweet crapping Christ! Democrats writing nice things about Cheney is fucking GARBAGE. You can just say, “My condolences to his family.” Or say nothing. Whitewashing his fucking criminal past doesn’t bridge divides. It only makes Democrats look like idiots.
