Spot on!!! seen so many trump voter who say they trust his policies but because he’s a businessman. wellso he is, but with a very patchy record. not The Apprentice origin story! Bring that up front and knock down that pillar of his support.
Trump is selling our energy policy out for $1B
.. lunch with himself for $25M
what consideration are you going to get for $25/month, mr grassroots Trump supporter ? save it for your retirement and health care after trump’s oligarchs go after them.
Keep up this dialogue and maybe it will get through, it really is the essence of what needs to be done. The guy is a convicted felon, that is the mantra, and not offered sheepishly or left to others, hopefully, to keep reminding everyone and how he is a/the big loser since his luck of the draw 2016 election.
I couldn't agree more with Rick, policy ads do not seem to move anybody, but keep reminding everyone that he is a convicted felon, which nobody should be proud of.
I just found you. Nobody told me you had a Stack. Love your writing style. I knew I would. Hopefully. Sooner than later…you will rejoin us on the side of the same. For now. This is Good.
Folks, Rick said it all...I can't amplify except to say...no more knives to this gun fight, forget the press...just fight like a damned Republican for once. The choice is clear...we must support democracy. Vote against autocracy vote for democracy. Be a citizen not a subject!
Still.. the message is clear and VERY frustrating! So many things to feel helpless about like say, the supreme court. Is there just nothing we can do? Every day we have to live with maga is another day of dealing with ignorance and gall. I need a nap.
As always Rick you freely put out all the information the Democrats need to win, win and win some more. You wrote a outline for them to use to win, win and win some more. Running Against the Devil is a blueprint for these knuckle heads to use to bring this race home for the Democracy win. Please keep doing what your doing it is so important.
"So, why in the name of hell are the Democrats already talking about “moving on” and “letting the press cover it” and “shifting to policy?" ???!!! PLEASE, RICK, can you take this DIRECTLY to the passivists who are running Biden's election and BEG them to listen to reason?! PLEASE! Pretty PUHLEEZE!!!
I appear to be off Meta apps IG and Threads due to convo I was commenting on w a female blond person in San Francisco last night. She was disgusted Trump was in town and Trump supporters were attacking Dolly Parton online. Absurd situation isn't the word. I wrote "Kick his ass out lol". Threads' Algorithms caught it - told me I had to fix it bc I was inciting violence. (I'm laughing.) Process of editing post, I was kicked off for "taking too much time" - literally 15 seconds max. LOL I cannot see anyone's posts on Meta apps. Message from Meta this morning - my post was restored but i'm evidently restricted from all activity on IG and Threads bc Threads won't even load. I believe this is happening to other women bc I've noticed them missing from Meta apps with "Content unavailable" being the only thing I see where their posts ought to be, during the past week. Morgan Fairchild is one example. She posts pro-Biden anti-Trump articles and comments. Have never seen a hint of snark from her - ever. Looks like Trump supporter dog-piling behavior or something similar, again. Comment by ??? about Dolly Parton was that they didn't like her interpretation of gospel. 😇🤣 See a pattern here? I certainly do. See y'all when I see ya I guess ... Wall of text is bc I'm thinking I'll lose this post if I hit return for a new line. 🙄🤔🤣👍
"We’re not selling to the mooks. We’re selling to the middle."
Right on target. As ever. It's baffling how many people still think the Dems should reach out to the MAGA voters. They're the same hand-wringers who don't get that Biden's strength is his appeal to the middle ground. It's clear the Biden campaign knows that's where they have put their effort.

It really is Biden or Fascism.
I really hope someone on the Biden campaign is listening to you!
Some text missing after “Biden needs…”?

remember when he called himself ‘“the king of debt”? Bankruptcy is his off ramp for business debt. what’s his plan for the country ??

Ummmm…. Who wrote this, or better yet, who proofread this. They missed a spot.

Short version: Biden IMO is the best President since FDR.
