    If the Dems were running on helping people with policies rather than saving democracy, I'd be okay with that. but they aren't running on that either (or not running on it convincingly).https://twitter.com/MatthewSitman/status/1517533770886303745 …

    I get the takes that amount to saying, "running on the GOP's 'threat to democracy' might not be the best politics." But I think the real problem is that Democrats could connect that to arguments about democratic workplaces, a more democratic economy, etc, but they generally don't

        My version of popularism is Dems should talk whenever possible about concrete material improvements they provide to voters. but hard to do that with BBB deep-sixed.

        Same as it ever was, their “plan” is to cudgel voters to the polls with the threat of Republican rule; it didn’t work in 1994, 1998, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2010, 2014, or 2016 but maybe they’ll get lucky this time

        More like he spent a period of years believing that Glenn Greenwald was a great journalist instead of a right wing operative and agent of chaos.

        So what? Do you really need “messaging” to tell you who the threat to our democracy is?
