"Given how much people hate the Republicans and love the Democrats, my question is: what are you going to do to mess this up?"

In the end it we had a Blue Wave. That's what I expect to happen this November. Abortion is a HUGE issue. Ending Democracy is a HUGE issue. The economy and border are significant, but not as much as taking away women's rights and destroying the Constitution.

Dubya said he only had four issues he'd talk about, and no matter what question he was asked he would turn it into one of those four issues. It worked. Al Gore was the better man, but he was too complex and thoughtful. Bush was more relatable. (he also had the SCOTUS on his side)

Marketing studies have shown that when the consumer is faced with a wide selection they won't choose any of them (i.e., stay home). When the number of items is limited to just three or four (products or issues) they will make a choice.

You can't make anything happen unless you have the power to make it happen, and that means winning elections. Being "nice" does not win elections. Being smart does. Focusing on the four issues I mentioned earlier are understandable, but throwing in the Green New Deal, global warming, making the function of police more focused (who the f*ck said "defund the police"?), BLM, diversity etc., voting rights, gun control, getting religion out of public schools (the" Likewise" movement) and returning books to the libraries, making science and civics classes available, single payer medical care, protect Social Security and Medicare, make corporations and the very rich pay their fair share of taxes, and all the other issues which are important to liberals and Democrats (mine is getting Thomas, Gorsuch and Alito off the SCOTUS) will confuse the voters, and they'll settle on the man has three simple issues -- revenge against PNLU (people not like us), America First, and permission to hate without end.

TFG has already said the 2024 election will be stolen. It's going to be a long, hard campaign.

5. And yet extremely qualified candidate Howard Dean failed to get the nomination after he uttered that "whoop!"

But now we have a Republican candidate who is facing 88 indictments and criminal trials and he's still the nominee!

8. Thief W lied and the pro thief W media bought it hook line and sinker!

Thief W spent the 2000 campaign telling lie after lie like how he was compassionate and wanted smaller government while the reality was he thought the government should force women to give birth against their will which is clearly not compassionate and a glaring example of big government. It's thief W's SCOTUS appointee Alito who is now the author of the anti-women Dobbs decision. The pro thief W media bought these lies hook line and sinker. In the post election dispute thief W claimed that all of the Florida votes had been counted and recounted. This was also a lie. Several hundred thousand legally cast Florida votes now sit uncounted in the Florida archives. Once again, the pro thief W media bought these thief W lies again hook line and sinker. The media failed miserably in 2000 and it looks to be setting up to do the same in 2024.

Very grounding and reassuring... A real reality check.
Thank you.
