Leader? Message? Agenda?
Posted in Humor, Politics on April 24th, 2025
The above is more true than not. It’s completely true in the context of any objective, positive messaging or agenda, though less so if one includes negative messaging. So, no leader, only negative messaging, and no firm agenda—that’s what the post-2016 Democrats have to offer America.
But, they do have a message, negative though it may be. The Dems are quite vociferous and strident about sending their message that President Trump is a malevolent, authoritarian, fascist, would-be dictator who is an existential threat to democracy, and every single one of the more than 77 million Americans who voted for him are Nazis.
But this is as the Democrats have always been within living memory, at least upon the national/federal stage. They’ve never had firm leadership. They’ve never had a message beyond Republicans are dangerous and evil, and they’ve never had a solid agenda due to virulently conflicting priorities.
