Comment on Deciding to Win: A Common Sense Renewal of the Democratic Party

Comments

Donald Trump and the Republican Party are damaging our economy and threatening our democracy.

The very first words in the very first sentence illustrate the problem. Since ~2016, the Democratic party has (mostly) defined itself as anti-Trump party, with some gender/identity issues mixed in.

Trump firmly believes there is no such thing as bad press. Giving him endless attention is playing into his hand. Choosing to play his game.

This piece makes some good points on how the Democratic party should shift policy to start talking about things voters actually care about, but first they need to tone down the anti-Trump rhetoric and stop feeding his hype machine.

Yeah, it feels like a "vote against him" rather than a "vote for me" position.

The republicans tried that for a while before trump and had little success.
