@rbreich GOP have mastered the art of repeating lies until people start to believe them. What is DEMs motto to improve the economic conditions for the 99%? And why aren't they keep repeating it? DEMs are pretty useless at having a consistent message. GOP have people believe lies, what have DEMs accomplished?
Show threadMT NickersonFeb 25, 2023

@fevzi @rbreich I suppose Dems have accomplished the art of honesty. It may not work as well as lies, but I’m certain that following the GOP playbook isn’t the way to go.

As far as accomplishments, Biden has ushered through quite a bit in his first two years.

@mtnickerson @rbreich I am not talking about DEMs needing to be dishonest!!!!!!!! GOP can even sell their lies, wheres DEMs cannot even showcase their accomplishments and ideals they are pursuing. DEMs need to have a message, a slogan they all stick to. GOP has been selling trickle-down shit and their base is eating it up. What is DEMs answer that will help the middle class and the poor?
Show threadMT NickersonFeb 26, 2023
@fevzi @rbreich Dems answer is honesty. Not a slogan.

@mtnickerson @rbreich DEMs need a consistent message, a slogan or whatever you want to call it. Honesty about what? What is the solution DEMs believe in and want to deliver? So DEMs have no solution and they are being honest about it?

Reagan is corporatist.

Nixon was illiberal (though less than Reagen).

Bush was flag-waving and caused the 2008 recession.

Trump was a failure, fraud, and most certainly the noose of his now MAGA-Neofascist-Nazi-Antidemocratic party.

I wonder who the next piece of sh*t will be? Pence? Nikki? Mx. Nazi-Republican-[Insert Name Here]? Jewish Space Lasers Lady aka Marjorie Taylor Greene?

Keep all Republicans out of the White House; they will end our democracy as we know it.

Stop them.

@rbreich "Trickle down economics" feels like the wealthy pissing on everyone else. And they believe we should thank them for the jobs! That's the thought I have always associated with that phrase. Am I too cynical?
