Kerry Eleveld has some advice for talking to voters in this piece - https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/5/24/2242455/-New-poll-shows-Americans-don-t-believe-how-good-the-US-economy-is-yet - but DailyKos passed along much better advice in their Feb 22nd DownBallot podcast with Anat Shenker-Osorio (https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/2/22/2225071/-The-Downballot-How-Democrats-can-win-on-the-economy-transcript).

Talk about people's economic well-being, not “the economy”.

Talk about who is working to improve your well-being vs. that of millionaire and billionaire donors, you know, the people taking Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito on expensive trips and buying them RVs.

The survey says the same people who have upside down beliefs about “the economy" also say they are doing pretty well and that their state is doing pretty well.

Focus on that, on their personal economic well-being and how Biden/Harris are working to make it even better while Trump says he’s going to cut the taxes of mega-corporations, millionaires and billionaires again!

Trump will make it even more expensive to pay for college, to get healthcare, and Republicans will pay for those tax cuts by cutting your Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

Whose looking out for working families’ economic security? Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Definitely give a listen to Anat's advice (at 29:20), she's a messaging wizard.

"You’re going to read a lot of coverage over the next several months about what truly matters to voters in 2024. A lot of this discussion will rely on polls that ask for people’s subjective statements of their priorities (“Oh, the biggest issue for me right now is inflation/abortion rights/Gaza/whatever.”)

Just don’t assume that those are the issues that will actually affect their choices on Election Day."

"By any measure, a policy that eliminated 4.5 percent of the current workforce, including large numbers of college and high school graduates, would set off serious economic tremors."

Not to mention decimating the Social Security and Medicare trust funds.

We need more working immigrants, not less if we're going to maintain all of our standards of living.

I'm pretty sure that the FDA and the supremacy clause of the Constitution will have something to say about this should the Louisiana Senate pass that bill and the governor sign it.

In the meantime, the rest of us should assume that Republicans would absolutely do this in Congress if given the chance.

Whether or not the SCOTUS MAGA judges block the January 6th trial from taking place before the election, everyone still knows that the former president led a conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election.

That fact is completely disqualifying. Completely.

Of course and the rest of regressive-right media is lying to their audience, it's what propaganda outlets do.

The truth?
"the prosecutors have ably painted a damning portrait of Trump..."
and
"Before the trial, Trump was more popular (or less unpopular) than he had been in a long time; through the trial, those numbers have slowly deteriorated."

What civil war?

The Ukrainian people chased out the Russian puppet because they saw clearly in which direction their best interests lay, with the EU and the West and definitely not as a vassal state of Putin's kleptocracy.

No conspiracy theory is going to make that not be true.

There are only ~40 million Black people in the US. Population similar to Lagos state in Nigeria (the tiny red part).

There are ~250 million US white folk (~220 non-Hispanic white + ~30 million Hispanic white).

So Biden's "missing" 10% of Black men, is fewer than 2 million. Or less than 1% of white US population.🤡

White voters don't face the massive systemic voter suppression that Black voters do. So increasing white dem turnout is much easier.

So if your boy doesn't win, blame yourselves.

@mekkaokereke @justafrog

What it's like is spreading the message that all the kids and all the teachers can and should strive to do better; it's good for them individually and for the entire community.

What I hear you saying is that no one (outside the Black community?) should make any effort to either mobilize or persuade members of the Black community to vote for Biden/Democrats because they have been reliable blue voters in the past.

That would be political malpractice.

Is Trump ahead in the polls, because Biden is losing support amongst one of his key demographics: Black men? Or are the polls all a lie?

Either way, the most important thing to do, is to ignore, insult, argue with, and generally disrespect, Black men online! 🤡 Find a Black man, and yell "Trump is worse!" in his face as hard as you can! Swear at him, and threaten him with violence!
