It's said that Democrats 'Speak in Encyclopedia' while Republicans 'Speak in Reader's Digest'

@demoncat @brewster @stopgopfox

I thought Republicans spoke in 'Mein Kampf"..

@Tazor @brewster @stopgopfox
Well, they would, but some of them invariably would tell the others , "This is 'Murica!! Speak English!!"
LoL
@demoncat @brewster @stopgopfox not quite - Dems speak in encyclopedia, Republicans speak in ‘So You Have An STD’ informational brochure from the county health department.
@demoncat @brewster @stopgopfox Democrats at large should learn from politicians like Joe Biden and John Fetterman. Simplify and personalize the message. Talk to people in their own language rather than show off how many degrees are on the wall.

I'm not aware of any Dems who sound "too learned".

@BobC7000 @demoncat @brewster @stopgopfox Generally the ones who come off like a white-paper is erupting out of their mouth. They can't turn off the lawyer or professor part.
@BobC7000 @theloneapple @brewster @stopgopfox Have you talked to Jamie Raskin lately? LOL! Just kidding.
@theloneapple @demoncat @brewster @stopgopfox Tell voters what you will do for them. And then tell them again.
@caseyjonesed @theloneapple @demoncat @brewster @stopgopfox : Don’t firget the “and then, do it” part. After you’ve done it, remind them what you’ve done.
@cwnidog @caseyjonesed @theloneapple @brewster @stopgopfox Exactly. The thing is, we do it, then remind them we did it, and somehow the Reps can still manage to twist whatever it was into something heinous . It's hard to battle an electorate that has been conditioned to believe the worst, and that WANTS to believe the worst.
It's a thing we need to figure out how to get out in front of and defeat.
@theloneapple @brewster @stopgopfox I hear ya on that front.
I've learned, from the hundreds of Reps I've personally tried to speak to, that associating whatever point I'm trying to make with something they already support goes a long ways to convincing them. The KISS approach, LoL . But, it does work.
@demoncat: Dems need to learn to speak to Repubs in Readers Digest and they may even have to dumb that down for some of them (e.g. Bobo and Margarine)

@Mauve @demoncat I don't know about that.

Dems dumb down things enough as it is.

They need to actually start doing the stuff they say they're going to do instead of just doing what the Repubs do.

@Davos @Mauve @demoncat Good luck waiting for that to happen. Ever since that POS Reagan this country has been razor focused on the same crap with little change regardless of whose in the White House or congress. I’ve come to the conclusion we’re stuck in the middle of the worlds most sophisticated good cop / bad cop routine even concocted and it ain’t gonna stop until we the citizens wake up & smell the fascism.
@mudsharkbytes @Mauve @demoncat Yeah, well, I'm apart of the Communist Party so I'm kinda already there haha
@Mauve @demoncat
Also, never think of yourself as explaining anything. They hate that. Seriously. Try "reminding them of stuff they already know"...whether you think they know it or not.
