Bring back the "War on Poverty" which was the best messaging the Democrats have ever had

[YorkRd]

As more and more Americans slip into poverty and more are fearing falling into poverty, this seems like a timely message. Start the events in Speaker Johnson’s district and other impoverished Republican areas.

1. Totally agree on the message "War on Poverty." However, probably need to present it differently because poverty is down

significantly since the 1960s.

But we definitely could go for couching it as it's been 65 years and still too many are stuck in poverty.

2. People don't like to think they're "poor"

Most people don't see themselves as impoverished, so long as they can point to someone doing worse than they are.

War on Inflation
War On The Rich

etc, etc

3. I think I have a winner slogan

I would love to see this become a plank in the Democratic Platform:

MAKE LYING WRONG AGAIN!

Seriously.

4. A possible reframe: 'Mr. trump's war on the impoverished.'

But I'll never write copy and there's a good reason for it.
