The Democrats should have a strategy to go on the offensive. [View all]

But, it should not be to attack Trump directly, in my opinion.

We need someone to monitor his lies and his political message. At the moment, when he wants to get a message to "his" people, he goes on Sean Hannity and FOX News.

Democrats need a network or a program that monitors FOX Propaganda. More people need to see what they are saying and doing, not less. There are sub-networks that mirror the FOX message but there is no one that defines it or interprets it for the people.

In my opinion, this is something the Democratic Party could do.
