As Democrats, we have to fight multiple battles on different sides of the aisle and hold off the media as well. We have to be better at controlling the narrative which is much harder with such a big tent. As Democrats we welcome varying points of view and never 100% agree on shit

That’s how it always is, Democrats have to work harder. For BP this is normal. We always have to fight from behind which is why we’re the base of the Party. We’re used to struggle while some others aren’t which is why their support is flimsy at times (neoprogressives,55% WW etc).

Still, we have to change the perception. We get played by the media by latching on to their disarray tropes. They love talking about how Dems don’t do this or that perfectly. Left media like TYT gets the base of its money and support by pushing that narrative. It’s a cash cow.

Forgot about this, but it applies to how narratives are pushed by the media...

TYT and the alt-left media; Sam Seder, Ring of Fire, Thom Hartmann, Krystal Ball, and the Bernie Sanders campaign generated millions of dollars by stoking hatred for Democrats. A right wing bot operation signal boosted them into a very comfortable lifestyle.

Do you think it’s just a coincidence that all of the alt-left media organizations had TV shows on Russia Today between 2013-2018? They were paid to be operatives for the right wing and they still play the role to this very day. That’s what they’re used to; grifting off Dem hate.

As an aside, I will add that we did have a victory which I think was kind of major. I know some disagree with me but again, we have a big tent. I think it was a major victory to have the most devious and capable minds on the right (The Lincoln Project) working for us this time.😏

We got Chris Matthews and his bullshit takes off the air and Chuck Todd is holding on by the hairs of his goatee. Andrea Mitchell would probably be out the door if not for Allen Greenspan and Katy Tur was relatively quiet for this election. The media has yet to make amends though

To clarify, I don’t even think they’re the most devious, just the most intelligent. The more devious ones are the Steve Bannon’s, Steven Miller’s and Karl Rove types. Find a way to take them off the opposition table as well and I’ll really be happy. Til then, I’ll take what I get

Our biggest success was stopping Bernie. He woulda had us lose 50 states! Every campaign should realize by now that Joe Biden was the ONLY candidate who could’ve won in this way (and I was a Kamala supporter before she officially announced) because America, is part shithole.

Every time the right gets repudiated, the media and the alt-left start in with the narrative of; why didn’t Dems do better? Or what about these problems on the left? Or why aren’t Dems compromising yet? Or really, why aren’t Democrats perfect in every way? FOH and 🖕🏾MM

Even though SC turned out to be an entrenched stronghold of Republican corruption headed by MoscowMitch, it also decided this election. South Carolina was the state where the plan to defeat Trump was revealed during the primaries. SC showed where we could go with the right plan.

The South Carolina primaries showed us where the real backbone of the Democrats lies. Most other constituents are sometimey with Dems. Only Black people and Native Americans vote as a bloc w such high percentages. Having Kamala Harris on ticket was the ONLY way to get those #

How come ONLY a ticket of Biden and Harris could beat Trump? First of all, in many respects intellectually, as a country, we live in a shithole. And Trump alone was suited to excel in this environment specifically because of his Hollywood fame. His TV image and name recognition

branded him with a marketable well-known persona. Second, it wouldn’t have worked without his total lack of integrity and willingness to lie in 95% of his sentences. Without the lies there’s no way to cover up the day to day gross incompetence. Watch out for the next racist celeb

Lastly, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, Trump as an unfit dimwit, racist troll, couldn’t have done any of the foul, deplorable shit he did,

without a willing majority of Senators in that bullshit minority-ruled, Constitutional mistake called the Senate. Explain how that shit makes sense.

Each state, no matter how sparsely populated, gets two Senators. Theoretically, all you have to do is get the smallest 26 states to vote for two Senators and that majority would run American democracy by passing or not passing laws and allowing criminals to roam free in the WH.

The Senate is the real seat of corruption. That’s not democracy. That’s minority rule, and not in a good way.

But TYT and the media never talk about that. They would rather blame Democrats for what Republicans do. After all, Republicans give them money to do it.
