This, my friends, is how you respond to a media frenzy






BIDEN: “A lot of people say I’m too old. I know I look 40. But I wasn’t too old to create 15 million jobs. I wasn’t too old to make sure 21M Americans are insured under the affordable care act. To be beat big pharma! Wasn’t too old to erase student debt for 5 million Americans! I wasn’t too old to put the first black woman on the Supreme Court of the United States of America! I wasn’t too old to sign the respect for marriage act? To sign the most comprehensive gun reform in 30 years! To pass the most comprehensive climate bill in the history of the WORLD.”

That was my news site, they were clearly anti-trump and basically left Biden alone. It has been ridiculous since the debate, every morning there are multiple anti-Biden headlines at the top. Decided just this morning that I will be changing my morning routine. I guess i will just come to DU for news. Actually the only news I care about is IS TRUMP DEAD YET? So I'll just check here for that.

Joe was terrific, completely on point – and he made sure to say that the efforts to get him to step down are not working. He's staying in and running to beat Donald Trump and make it to the 250th anniversary of our nation as a democracy.

isn't sitting well with me. It was released very shortly after President Biden finished his rally. Almost as if to distract from covering how well the President's rally went.

It’s becoming blindingly obvious that there is an agenda, just like Hillary’s emails and Saddam’s WMDs. Also, Al Franken. Someone is pulling their strings.

"The Democratic Party are and have for a long time, failed at marketing. Biden and his amazing Administration have accomplished the beginning of turning our country back into We the People rather than "we the Corporations and Greedy". The infrastructure bill all by itself is bringing jobs to every state in the union. Several new manufacturing facilities are going up that will provide jobs for us. He turned OPEC on its ear with using our oil reserves to keep the price down on oil and gas and added $100s of thousands in revenue by selling it. OPEC has been in control of prices and now know that we are in the game. He has started replenishing our oil reserves at much lower prices so we are ready for the next "Emergency" Every Democrat in every state should be "advertising" the benefits that have been derived since Joe Biden's presidency. He has a lot to hang his hat on and so do we. WHERE IS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!!!!!"
***********************************************************************************************************************************
And, let me add here:

There are many more accomplishments and you can see some more in the X file in the original post.

People need to see what has been done and is in the process of happening--state by state specific. The messaging needs to go directly to people so that they can see what is happening in each state. The Democratic Party needs to hammer out the message specifically to each state in detail. Such as: how many jobs have been created in their state with an infrastructure project or two. How many jobs are projected in the state to an infrastructure project that is in the design phase for their state. etc. etc.

The Democratic Party needs to step up its game TODAY! People need to be able to relate to the work that Biden has already done. Using big topic words mean nothing--it's not visible. What does the Infrastructure Bill mean for ME Go ahead--tell me.What does paying off student loans do for ME, the individual on the street.

Do your part. Spread the word. We should have always been on the Offense--not the Defense. Time to Fight and Fight Hard.

And they LOVE when the media jumps all over President Biden.

Plus, trump is fucking 78—he's not a young man!!—AND he rambles on and on about bull shit constantly.
