Whether Trump is a Nazi adjacent fascist or just owning the libs, the MAGA GOP is populated, in part, by fascists, Holocaust deniers and Nazi sympathizers and the MAGA GOP leadership is perfectly fine with it.

Anyone who votes for Trump is also perfectly fine with it and that is extremely dangerous for everyone who is not White and Christian.

4 years to the day after George Floyd was murdered, here's where we are:

  • Racist people are just as racist as the day before George Floyd was murdered.

  • Black people are still asking for the exact same things.

  • "Liberal" and "Centrist" white Americans are more racist, and less supportive of DEI than they were the day before George Floyd.

  • Police budgets have grown faster than they did the day before George Floyd.

  • Biden has undone any of the gains made during the protests.

Abortion and reproductive rights in general is not the only issue potential Biden voters care about, but it is an avatar for all of the things prospective Biden voters care about.

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.

joeinwynnewood,
@joeinwynnewood@mstdn.social avatar

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!

joeinwynnewood,
@joeinwynnewood@mstdn.social avatar

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."

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.
