1. Ha Ha!! Good one!!

2. You'll get most traditional Dems with that, but you probably won't win extra voters

Calling MAGA and Traditional R's liars and dog whistling pranksters may in many respects be true, but it isn't going to welcome folks around those dog whistlers to vote blue

Name calling goes knee deep into the muck exposing the name caller as being a person with an opposing attitude to non-Dem listeners.

We need rhetoric that helps build the reception of the brand and its products. We don't need to stiffen the backs of opponents

Why not do something that not only paints Dems as GOOD, do something that makes Dems GOALS OBVIOUS AND DESIREABLE

Why not create a new rhetoric like Dems: The FAIR-DEALERS. When R's go after that, they'll expose their own hostility to a very important thing that American voters WANT

7. Time to call Trump and GOP what they are

Anti-democracy, Nazi dictators. The Trump/GOP agenda is the same as the Nazi agenda. We should be shouting this from the rooftops.

17. We have a self-serving man maneuvering for a Junta of Radical Capitalism

We have Phalangism which in some respect is merely rightwing dictatorship by committee. Phalangism has been common in central and south America. Funneling money and perks to members of the regime holds that regime together, and provides Trump an opportunity to fake power thru his domestic and international military excursions. There is no trickle down in Trumpism, only spending on wasteful excesses, gifts to the highest donors to the dictatorship as the regime practices advanced kleptocracy and yields gold spray-painted circuses for the rest of us

Trump Inc has peaked and isn't winning over voters and that should be no surprise History suggests authoritarian rule is very good at alienating itself from their own citizens, and that resentment is a feature that needs to be exploited by the Dems. IMO many Trump voters see they have made the FAFO mistake; educating them to a path of recovery is the task at hand.

Dems and left leaning media shouldn't be hiding the evidence of that Truths need to be told. Independents, trad Rs and even MAGATs can see it hasn't been good. Trumpism's support is collapsing. And Dems need to support that migration. As MAGA and Trumpism bleed supporters those voters need to be moved into liaisons with Dem voters in Democratic efforts to end Trumps reign and erase its damage. My interest isn't criticizing Dems. I'm suggesting trying to work effective approaches to gain independents and traditional conservative votes by 2028 rather than alienating them from what is likely the most important political cause in our history.

18. Thank you for your concern

[31j20b3]

19. Diverse opinion, even opinion against the popular current is OK

From many opinions people can form up around the ideas they endorse

And we need everyone pulling toward ending MAGA and Trumpism

20. Ya, they called Roosevelt a Socialist, and tried to mount a coup against him

Thank goodness for General Smedley Butler's standing against it.

This thing we are currently trapped in is about giving the Billionaires greater and greater control of government, and they really aren't interest in anything but radical capitalism with no restraints on buying government.

Did you ever wonder where the European royals that replaced Roman rule came from??? They emerged from that eras super-rich. And they used their wealth to create heritable nobility. That same trap is currently set to overwhelm our Democracy.

Trump is desperate to establish his dynasty. I can't even imagine where the upper limit on bad will be under the rule of his greedy kids

5. Putin's a capitalist like ours

but with more state power. Russia's mafiosi overthrew communism and copied us.

Yeah, KGB and all, but he was only in it for the money.

Don't forget: Melanoma's parents were commie officials.

"Are you now, or have you ever been a member of the communist party?"

9. Omgosh, I Love that billboard! Send it to your favorite late night guys

And John Oliver. Because, John Oliver will have that billboard made if it hits him just correct. Maybe, more than one billboard! Glorious!! 🥰

[MerryBlooms]

10. Jimmy Kimmel too, but Kimmel is on vacation

Still...
Send it, multiple times daily! 🤣

[usonian]

11. I don't do TV, but it's easy for anyone to post elsewhere or email to a TV host.

Thanks!

[MerryBlooms]

14. I can try to, not sure how. I watch these folks on YouTube

Not regular tv.
I love that billboard!
Well done!

[usonian]

15. I also avoid those "social media" -- you know their names

I spend my posting and reading time on DU and Hacker News.

The two are very well moderated and very civil.

Those others are cesspools of hate and violence (and countless trolls, most of which are AI-driven these days)

They will find a way.

THANKS!
