Correlation, causality, reverse causality, third factor? It is hard to say. Instead of creating a blue or red narrative can we have more colors? GOP is a bag of nuts and Dems are a bag of farts. We need more parties.

@mcuban.bsky.social you try to find logic and strategy in Trump's actions. I'm not sure your reasons were anywhere close to his thinking. Regardless, it matters how you present things. Trump doesn't treat them as allies, he treats them like serfs in the Middle Ages, protection for subservience

Instead of spending a ton of money in the final months of a campaign Dems should use that money now to help people, to educate. A dollar now goes further than in October 2026.

How many minds are really swayed by political ads in the last 6 months of a campaign? Democrats need to show up early and start at the roots, organize their members to do things for the local community not just talk about high ideals.

It's unlikely enough people will leave those platforms just to make a statement. People need to find an alternative that is enticing and not solely a reaction. So far I found Bluesky to be most anti X. Not a winning proposition.
