Things will be tied up in courts by blue governors just like the way republicans do it.

Yeah a 3rd term is their only shot. They know it too.

Northern District of California or the Western District of Washington need to become our Western District of Texas. Injunction after injunction needs to flow from there. Even if SCOTUS inevitably strikes them down, it still consumes time and resources to do so.
Edit: oh, also. Build more housing in blue States

Housing cost is def a main issue in blue states. There is no denying that. And if it tanks the local real estate for a time being let it be so.

I kinda meant it figuratively to where policies shouldn't shift, but maybe the tone and message that needs to reach them shifts. Just like how you brought up legacy media and the distrust that people have about it. It would be hard to swear off legacy media altogether without it reinforcing the far right's original distrust of mainstream media. I mean these are the people that would repost and share anything that reinforces their views and doubling down on it even if it's fabricated.
I don't see one size fits all solution with messaging and communication in our current state of media. Both sides are money-driven in their interests and people will go back to their corners whenever their beliefs will be challenged or lead them to an uncomfortable place. Maybe places like IG, X, Meta need to strip the algorithms so that both sides get equal representation without the feeds turning into echo chambers? But even then, we have Elon controlling X and that is a platform that significantly favors the far right. It's sucks, it feels like there's no solution to bipartisanship in today's polarized state of politics without something major happening again. Covid did it temporarily then here we are 4 years later

Trump Holds Up Transition Process Over Ethics Code
President-elect Donald J. Trump has not submitted a required ethics plan stating he will avoid conflicts of interest.
Yeah it's going to be interesting where they go when hes out of the picture. Cause none of their people have whatever Trump has. Vance, Don Jr., Vivek, Haley, Hawley, Cotton, Desantis. None of them are going to be able to drive that crowd the same way.

This chick is so dislikeable, she couldn't even win in a Trump landslide. If only MTG and Boobert could go the same way.

In the meantime, Democrats need to develop their own version of the right-wing propaganda machine to amplify their own voice and sell their platform. When I say "swear off legacy media," I mean treat them the same way Republicans have: show up for interviews and answer questions with talking points, don't elaborate on anything, and use your TV time to redirect the audience towards news sources that are unapologetically sympathetic to Democrats.
There are too many people in this country who only know the Democrat brand as shown through the GOP/MSM/right-wing social media filter, and if there's one thing I think this election is telling us, it's that any publicity is not good publicity.

As a phone bank volunteer, I hoped to counter the Republican attacks and half-truths, but people really believed them, says journalist and podcaster Oliver Hall

Propaganda was a huge plus for Trump. Dems won't win without a counter to this.

No one should be surprised by any of this.. news entities spent years refusing to call lies “lies”
And it’s the same shh they did with biden where he was this mastermind that could do all these things they accused him of while at the same time being asleep at the wheel according to them

Congrats brother, you won all the swing states.
(Can I say this: it’s really BS to talk like we’re holier than thou and then “take a break from this thread” like you’re on a mental vacation).
A break from what you think is an atrocity
A break from what happened.
Me a Dem: That actually is being a flake. Talk now. You’re fed up, who cares, but go on, disappear into the night and take your break.

You think you’re right? This is the time, not before when you thought it was in the bag. This despondent crap is so funny.

It's fascinating how the folks who come in here to complain about an echo chamber or to concern troll about jokes aimed at MAGA people seem to always eventually reveal that they're consuming content from some of the most horrible right-wing sources
