BIDEN LEARNED ONE GOOD LESSON FROM TRUMP AND LEARNED IT WELL.

[halfulglas]

One thing Biden learned from Trump was publicizing his actions early and openly. Trump was shameless, of course, because he publicized outright lies. One of the things Trump did was follow the Bannon theory of "flood the zone with shit." Well, Biden has always been good on TV so every single day he is out there explaining things with that calm, earnest voice and face. He's flooding the zone with facts and hope and good will. He's flipped the story on Trump's "Promises Made, Promises Kept." He's keeping promises and telling the truth. Where Trump was touting his Muslim ban and ramping up his hateful policies, Biden has been making order out of the chaos. He has an excellent team who also don't hide. His favorables have come up in the past week not just because of the terrible things we are still finding out about January 6, they've come up because he shows he is actually doing something.

Not everything is going to come up roses, but the American Public has become so used to an out there president, the RW would probably use him quietly working in the WH against him as "hiding," as they did when he didn't actively campaign with rallies. Well, he's not hiding now but I think the Republicans wish he would.

1. Republicans can shove it where the sun does not shine.

Joe is going to be Joe.

Republicans can complain all they want. The truth hurts them and Democrats should be taking advantage of that.

2. +1

This was actually reported (can't recall) where, but that was something Biden and his team took from Trump with just a lot of information all the time.

6. Pennsylvania looks like a file folder that a dog chewed on

I mean the map-shape of the state. Up close it's quite beautiful and I miss visiting my grandparents & cousins up there.

3. NO NEED TO SHOUT

But I agree with what you're saying

[Chainfire]

4. What we will find out in two years is if good governance translates into more votes.

I am not very optimistic.

[Mr.Bill]

5. It's something I learned working in sales.

Say what you do and do what you say.

Trump did neither. That's why his businesses all fail.

[Cozmo]

7. Absolutely!

8. Funny, I haven't heard them use the name "Sleepy Joe" for awhile now

[Kablooie]

9. He could have learned that from Obama too.

There were many things Obama did that didn't get credit for because he didn't loudly publicize his actions.

10. Flood the zone. I like it. I'm not sure if this appropriate to say here, but I am seeing lots

of crazy rw ads on DU like the left wants to give ill immigrants free healthcare etc. I’m kinda surprised to see it on my phone when using DU.

11. Biden's appearances have been nice, like 21st century Fireside Chats

12. Love the daily info from Team Biden. I rather be flooded with info rather than getting nothing at

all.

Bravo Biden

13. Amplify, amplify, amplify!

That's another lesson from Trump. If you do something positive, yell it from the highest mountain and keep reminding people over and over and over of that good thing you did. And get your spokespeople to keep repeating it over and over, too.

Of course, in Trump's case, the things he said he had accomplished had not been achieved at all or he would take credit for things he had little or nothing to do with.

And Joe and Kamala would never boast about their achievements in the vainglorious way Trump did. But they and their spokespeople need to make sure the American people know who it is that is getting this country back out of the ditch—again!

Otherwise, we'll have a situation similar to that of people hating Obamacare with a white-hot passion, yet loving their Affordable Care Act health insurance subsidies.

14. That was one problem with Obama in the 1st term as well

He and his team never explained the ACA as well as it could have been explained, as well as other legislation. So, Joe has learned from there as well.

15. Exactly what I have been thinking, say unity while blasting through things that help people...

This is the recipe. Do positive things, some real, some symbolic. Tell the American people over and over what you have done. Now blast through positive things with budget reconciliation.

Just deliver good governance, advertise it often. Let the people see Repubs just say no with no plans of their own. And come 2022 and 2024 let the voters decide what they want.
