Joel is clearly an astute, intelligent person. He's also naïve and stuck in the last war. He betrayed this when he said "well, guess what, the GOP will have to represent those people (those in their new, more diverse coalition)".
No they don't *have* to. And so they don't. The GOP's secret sauce is sowing hatred and division always and everywhere. They can distract with manufactured outrages, so they do. Their Orange King can bellow for them to shut up, and they will. We waste time pretending that they are intelligent, reasonably-motivated people, because they are not. We have to learn to bamboozle them with bullshit, and do it better than the Republicans, because they are gullible fools and are incapable of voting for their own interests.
Dems... How about here is a man with 34 felonies, held liable for sexual assault is fighting for law and order as he gives a convicted sexual predator a sweetheart deal and possiblt a pardon. That is the story. It is distraction, and it should be called out. This walking past the graveyard is stand dem policy. Push back at the criminal trump. Push against the criminal paxton, etc. Pomch him hard with trumpstein and his lies about DC. I can't stand this boring corporate dem messaging. It has been and is a losing strategy.
I just listened to Stuart Stevens and Simon Rosenberg and that was what needs to be done.
Crime was down under Biden. DC is a relatively safe city. trump is arresting innocent people, including Americans. trump is hosting a war criminal. trump is a criminal. Simple.
I was with you up to the last word. Simple? No, it's not simple. Trump is a result of the ongoing rot in the Republican Party, which is in turn a result of the idiocy and mindless nihilism infecting the Republican voters. Those voters got exactly what they wanted. They are our problem, not Trump.
I still believe it's simple, especially considering trump has made a deal with sexual predator maxwell to be grabted work release. Even maga moronic cultists might not stand by their man for that act of leniency towards a sex trafficker. Just a guess, and I have been wrong before on how low maga will go.
I find it so interesting that Trump doesn’t realize that every time he selects someone really inadequate to serve in his cabinet or to assume an important position, he is the one who looks the most inadequate, the one who doesn’t know what he is doing. He seems to think we are all stupid, but he is wrong. The lies are becoming more blatant and more discernible!

I guess we'll both see, then.
