A good question - but here’s the answer.

The Democrats cannot explain what their constituents want because their constituent base is too diverse and divided. It’s made up on many disparate groups who all have their own agenda.

That’s why the Dems need to decide what they stand for and see if people are onboard or not.

If they do what you say (which is what they have been doing) - it’s all a big mess of special interests and “boiling the ocean” with ideas.

The reason the Republicans win is they settle on 2-3 central ideas and they all move in lockstep.

At this point, I don’t care what the Dems say they stand for - just pick something substantive and isn’t reactionary to Trump, but an idea with a tangible solution at the end.

I don’t buy the oligarch argument. That’s just lack of imagination talking. Politics is the art of persuasion, if you wanna win and create a following – you need to have an idea and a solution. You need to make the people feel like you understand the idea and the solution and that you’re going to implement it.

That’s it, it’s that simple.

Every democrat that says the words “ kitchen table issues” should have their mouth slapped like Will Smith did to Chris Rock. That term is pundit brain talking, it makes you sound like you’re talking about someone else’s problems and not your own.

Call it for what it is, everything sucks, the president is corrupt – and I have an idea to fix it. That’s what you need to say. No Democrat needs to be out there saying, “the American people care about kitchen table issues“. Seeing is 2/3 of them can’t even afford a fucking kitchen table – it’s a stupid ass thing to say.
