He was a MAGA Trumpster! [View all]
Do you recall just a few days ago when the young guy set a brush fire and then killed a couple of firemen when they responded to the fire. He was a big-time MAGA. A big Trump guy, with a gun. We cannot let these stories slide by if we wish to ever get any gun legislation.
You can bet that if he had been a Biden supporter or a Democrat, it would have been all over FOX News and right-wing media. "See, they are always blaming us but who is killing people?!", they would have repeated over and over. These are the type of stories where we need to be repetitive, in my opinion.
In a similar way, with the Big Ugly Bill passed today, Democrats should be locked and loaded and be ready to pounce the first time a rural hospital is closed and should place the blame squarely on the GOP. Individual examples are better than generalized statements such as, "17 million people are going to lose their healthcare". People are not as interested in "what is going to happen" as they are in what is happening and being reported, in my opinion.
I think this is one way that Democrats can message differently and be more effective. Just my opinion.
