It is time now for Dems to shift their strategy from selling things which have not yet happened to the things which have - ARP, COVID, recovery.
If we can’t get credit for things we’ve done we won’t for things we haven’t.
2022 will be about whether we led US into recovery.

If Democrats cannot credit for our core promise to voters in 2020 - defeating COVID, securing the recovery - we will not get credit for passing bills whose impacts will not be felt for years.

Best way to sell BBB and infrastructure is by defeating COVID and securing the recovery, and explaining and getting credit for it. That is job #1.
Don’t think there’s any politics/comms rn outside COVID/recovery frame.
FFS COVID may be most disruptive thing to hit US ever.

It’s possible for BBB to really matter and to have simultaneously helped contribute to Biden’s decline.
Like Obama in 2009 we moved on to secondary issues before finishing job on issue #1.
More of a political comms thing than leg thing. I explain here:

Not sure why we strayed from COVID/recovery frame. Perhaps those of us who work on Zoom experienced COVID differently fr those who don't.
But for whatever reason our politics now has to be abt bravery/resilience of Americans who fought thru COVID.
They are the heros. Not us.

Good news is all of our challenges can be overcome, and we are far more in control of our destiny than it feels right now.
I offer some thoughts on the path forward below, and would still much rather be us than them in the 2022 midterms. ndn.org/3-reasons-why-…

Want to put an exclamation point on something here.
What I am saying is that with so little of the infrastructure and BBB programs being in place by the elections next year, Dems have to focus on getting credit for what we've done, not things which have not happened yet.
