What the Democrats have to start planning for now

[edhopper]

Next November the Democrats could take the House, the Senate or both. They must start planning now how to counter Trump in any of these eventualities.

1. They will need to put forward an economic agenda.

2. For 2028

All they can do if they get Congress is stop Trump. With him in the Oval Office, there is nothing they can pass.

6. Stop what?

His economic policies with the tariffs and immigration policies were not passed through congress, he just did it. If they win the House or the Senate in the midterms, it will give them a chance to show the voters they have a plan for improving their lives, even if they don't pass anything. Both parties have low approval ratings. The one that can convince voters that they can make a difference can become the dominant party.

7. That is why they need a plan

5. Promise to vote to repeal the tariff tax increase

And campaign against AI replacing jobs.

3. How about a plan to get solid turnout at urban precincts patrolled by a hostile alphabet soup of federal agents?

Seems like something Democrats should put on the agenda at some point.

4. There is winning next year

Which one hopes they are working on. And what to do if they win. Without a plan winning could be meaningless,
