    I’d love to be wrong, but while they talk a lot neither of these two are accomplishing much on that front either. And no, I don’t mean their voting history.

      Messaging is important. While the Republicans are saying “There’s some temporary pain, but it’ll all sort itself out in the end. We just need to get through this transition, and the tarrifs and deportations will MAGA”, there needs to be a counter-argument.

      They’re (thankfully) not preaching to the choir. They’re going to Republicans and independents and explaining in these rallies that there’s an oligarchy that has taken control, made them poorer, and it will get worse.

      If they can convince enough people of the real causes, they have a broader base, and potentially even some new progressives.

        lol Republicans messaging is always that BS. Just like trying to get rid of Obamacare.

        “it’ll sort itself out”.

        Yes, with lots of death and money lost.
