Us Dems need to come up with the right message that can attract these puke voters. Keeping harping on DACA just makes things worse. Immigration is a losing issue with these people, so why bet the farm on that?
Space science is a winning issue. Why not speak to these voters and put forth new legislation that increases funding for NASA. There is so much cool there that I can't imagine anyone voting against it. But I suppose there are those on the extreme left that would rather eliminate NASA funding and use the savings for other more pressing issues such as housing for the poor right here on good'ol' Terra Firma. I'd tell them to get the Congress to reduce military spending to cover such costs.
I know all too well the issue with the lack of affordable housing. It prevents me from owning my own home. but, hey, it's my own fault, I got too sick to work and had to retire on disability. Just try living any assemblence on such a pultry sum. I guess I should just go ahead and end my life. No one cares anyway.
So sadding.
