Blue Rose Research, the firm led by Democratic establishment darling David Shor, produced a memo earlier this month digging into the effectiveness of various messages related to Trump’s takeover of Washington, D.C. The firm advised that messaging around Trump’s “rising authoritarianism” was “highly unconvincing,” while messages that say Trump wants to “distract” from his damaging tariffs or horrifying Medicaid cuts were more effective. Meanwhile, Republican messaging about how Trump is clamping down on gang violence tested through the roof.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) was asked Sunday on CNN what the party’s plan is to fight the president sending troops into Chicago. He only offered that Trump has no authority to do this, and that he supports the men and women working in law enforcement. He also, as the Blue Rose memo suggested is effective, cast the federal takeover as a “distraction” from Trump’s unpopular policies. Jeffries didn’t seem too worked up about any of this, delivering his talking points with a complacency that certainly did not bely that the United States is currently experiencing a militarized dismantling of representative democracy.
Democrat leadership continues to be clueless about the lived experience of Americans and will be baffled at their own inability to wrest control from the fascists. I’m sure that when the regime outlaws the democrat party it will come as a huge surprise. “How did this happen? Where did this come from?” they will say as they are either dragged away or swear loyalty to MAGA.
You mean when Trump start rounding them up, they’ll beg for “someone” to “do something” about it!
“Democratic leadership”.
Democrat is a noun. Democratic is the adjective form.
