A major problem that Democrats face is that, in an effort to be a centrist, big tent party, they lack a really coherent set of core ideas to organize around, with perhaps the exception of being "not the Republicans." The result is that this allows the Republicans to label them however they like.

As much as it can feel like a joke calling Elon Musk "the Shadow President," it's not actually all that funny. I fear he is the Crassus to Trump's Cesar.

Miss information thrives in a low information environment. Most people are just trying to feed their kids and pay their rent. "Well, I heard someone say..." is probably the most news the get.
