My Offer Stands To Be The Public Relations Director For Democrats

I have a couple of rules;

1. Every Congressional Democrat must parrot my talking points about the issues. I will give talking points for the hottest issues. They must also seek out microphones to repeat my talking points at least once a day. They must also hold at least 1 town hall per week.

2. When asked a question by the media about one of the hot issues, the Democrat must repeat my talking point no matter what the question was.

Example; When asked about SignalGate every Democrat must respond forcefully that Hegseth and Waltz must resign or be fired by Trump.
Then demand that every personal phone that was used during SignalGate must be turned over to an independent expert to check for mal ware. Then mention that every Magat who participated in SignalGate broke the law for not preserving government records and should be prosecuted and if convicted be sentenced up to 10 years in prison. The Democrat can ad lib from then on.

Example 2, When Trump and Vance stated that Denmark and Canada have not been good allies, every Democrat must respond forcefully demanding that Trump and Vance apologize to the families and loves ones of the Canadian and Denmark soldiers who died fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan for us.

3. I will work for free.

4, Bonus question for DUers; who is the chairman of the DNC? I wanted O'Malley but he only got 44 votes. Omalley is out doing town halls talking about the destruction of Social Security. Not sure what the mystery DNC chairman is doing, but that just may be because I am a progressive and not in the click.

I know it's Ken Martin, the guy who was supposed to have helped Democrats use their slight edge to turn Minnesota into one of the most progressive states in the country, with a relatively small Democratic party majority.

I haven't seen much evidence that the DNC is doing anything. The candidates in the Florida special elections seem to have raised their relatively impressive war chests mostly on their own. Are we still seeing traditional old party line thinking that you don't put money in a race in a gerrymandered district you know you can't win, or is there some realistic thinking, given the fact that Trump himself has been scared spitless enough of these elections to cancel moving the incompetent idiot Elise Stefanik out of Congress to the UN?

that Krasnov won by, what was it 25 points, and when the state Pa. senator won the special election that Trump won handily that tells me that Democrats need to spend money in pretty much every damn district.

I agree about the strategy being the strategy used in 2017 that does not apply today.

that get repeated over and over again.

Every Congressional Democrat needs to hold town halls because it is up to us, the people, to throw out the billionaires.

Imagine if they did half of what Bernie and AOC are doing, WE WOULD CONTROL THE NARRATIVE.
