This new @NavigatorSurvey research is a bit of a must read, and suggests Democrats can take the GOP's current advantage on the economy away from them. 1/
Look at the movement when voters were exposed to the arguments that the economy is in fact better, things are improving, Dems have done a good job.

In our business this is fairly dramatic movement. 2/
This year we will be graded on whether we made things better. We have. Things are better. And we be loud and proud about it. Biden has done a good job. COVID's been a formidable adversary. But we are getting there, together.

There is a big story for us to tell. Since 1989

Dems = growth, jobs, progress, success
GOP = recession, failure, decline

It's the most important least understood story in US politics today.

Help us tell it in the days ahead. 4/

For more on just how much better the economy is today, check out our recent conversation with noted economist, @robshapiro, below.

In this terrific discussion Rob goes over his two recent articles in @monthly on the Biden Boom.

Well worth your time. 5/

This new essay by @crampell does a terrific job of reminding us how the modern GOP has literally no answers to the challenges we face, how unready they are to return to power. 6/

Returning to @ThePlumLineGS's really smart look at the new @NavigatorSurvey research showing that selling the Biden Boom to voters can work. 1/

Here is a thread I did yesterday.

The bottom line - Democrats simply must make selling their economic achievements over decades a far higher priority in the months ahead. The data is just brutal for Republicans. 2/

The foundational stats:

Of the 42m jobs created since 1989, 40m - 95% - have been created under Dem Presidents.

3 times more jobs created under Biden than in last 3 GOP Presidents *combined *

Rs averaged 10k new jobs/month over 16 years! 3/

Just posted a recording of our latest "With Democrats Things Get Better."

It's our indepth look at US politics since the Cold War ended, and what we find is things get better when Dems are in the White House, not so much whens Rs are.

Do watch! 1/

ndn.org/WithDems-Feb-1…
With Dems tells the story of what we call the most important least understood story in US politics today - that one American party has governed well in a time of change and transformation, the other has repeatedly struggled. 2/

The most significant stat in the presentation:

Of the 42m new jobs have been created in US since 1989, 40m - 95% - have been created under Democratic Presidents. 3/

Hope you will join us! 1/

The presentation explores, with many data filled slides, perhaps the most important least understood story in US politics today - that when Democrats are in power, things get better. With the GOP, not so much. 2/
Of the 42m jobs created in American since 1989, 40m - 95% - have been created under Democratic Presidents.

It's a stunning statistic, one that perhaps more than any other helps explains why GOP has descended into MAGA. It no longer understands, can manage a changing world. 3/

To recap a big year:

GDP growth under Biden more than 3 times each of last 3 GOP Presidents

Job growth under Biden 3 times last 3 GOP Presidents COMBINED

40m of 42m jobs created since 1989 - 95% - have come under Dem Presidents.

A thread: 1/
That the economy performs so well under Democrats and does so poorly under Republicans is perhaps the most important least understood story in American politics today.

40m of 42m jobs created since 1989 - 95% - have come under Dem Presidents. 2/
The performance of the US economy in 2021 was truly remarkable.

Strongest GDP growth in almost 40 years.

Over 6m jobs created, three times as many as were created by last 3 GOP Presidents COMBINED. 3/

It's #JobsReport day so time to update our jobs tracker.

The topline:

34m jobs = 16 yrs Clinton Obama
6.2m jobs = 11 months Biden
2m jobs = 16 years 2 Bushes Trump

Already 3 times as many Biden jobs as last 3 GOP Presidents, COMBINED. 1/
Breaking it down by month, jobs have been created at more than 50 times the rate under Biden as under the last 3 GOP Presidents.

Biden = 565k/month
Clinton/Obama = 176k/month
Bushes/Trump = 10k/month

Incredibly, GOPers saw only 10k jobs created per month over 16 years. 2/
During what has been one of the best years for the American economy in modern history, the unemployment rate has come down 2.4 pts, down now to a very low 3.9%.

In contrast the last 3 GOP Presidents all brought recessions, and rising unemployment rates. 3/

There are few things that have been more foundational to current DC conventional wisdom than redistricting was going to be a disaster for Ds, hand the House to the Rs.

Turns out that hot take was wrong. '22 map will be far better for Dems than CW held. 1/
cookpolitical.com/analysis/house…
As a veteran of many election cycles here in DC, it is my professional opinion than when it comes to the 2022 elections I would rather be us than them.

Rs have doubled down on MAGA, a politics the country rejected in the last 2 elections. 2/

ndn.org/3-reasons-why-…
On most issues which will matter to the 2022 battleground - COVID, our democracy, health care, climate, choice - the GOP is way out of the mainstream, not competitive.

Just not going to be easy to sell a party of insurrectionists to suburban voters. 3/
