Look, if these complete morons on the Right want to vote against their self-interests and America, they are beyond help, and all I will do is keep working my a-- off to make sure people understand this.
What we have is a failure to communicate on the Left.
The truth is these people support the America-attacking blowhard because he stirs their cold blood. He makes them feel good about looking backward instead of at all the possibilities ahead. He makes them feel good about thinking they are the only thing that matters and that they have somehow been cheated out of their dark, empty lives.
They don’t want to make America better. They want to make everybody else’s lives worse.
All they are is angry, and have finally found a lewd, racist conman who can put a megaphone to their tantrums, and deal the rest of America plenty of pain. He has no goddamn answers for them or us.
What we have right now is a MASSIVE messaging problem.
From the minute the Biden Administration took power it worked like hell to tackle a global crisis that was exacerbated by the previous administration. I mean, holy s— even infrastructure got done, and do you know who has benefited most from that? White people.
If that didn’t resonate, it’s not because it didn’t happen. It’s because too many people didn’t know about it.
Democrats have no message, progressives suck at talking, Republicans are good at talking because they know it’s all they have.
But at a certain point people do just have to be smart enough to see that something so obviously bad is bad. You really can’t work around it.
Which is why the American status quo (as opposed to “humanity”) is a virus that the earth is healing by means of a fever. Our best is better than this, but we’re graded on our average.
