Was thinking more AOC and Ilhan Omar, as well as a wide range of liberal organizations, all of whom made sure Democrats generally were widely associated in the public mind with the slogan "defund the police."

There is no evidence that Defund the Police cost any votes. The argument really isn’t between AOC and a democrat who lost a marginal house seat in a red district. That person would’ve lost if the slogan was Police Are Our BFFs. With no evidence VIP accept DtP was a losing slogan.

there's also just no evidence it mattered. there's always an attack, be it Pelosi, the ACA, death panels, caravans, the swamp, deplorables. but results are overwhelmingly driven by predictable structural factors.

but then Politics Knowers like James turn around every time and ascribe the results to the attacks. it's like the guy who has to a domino's pizza every sunday because the one time he did it his team won big
