It isn't so much the content. We need clarity but, as you say, it needs to be focused, clear, and as simplified as possible. Similar to the Mamdani approach.

The STYLE and VEHICLE of that messaging is where I think a talented communicator can reach various demographics. That's what needs to change.

On Dem messaging, Lawrence O'Donnell, and even Heather Cox Richardson and the like... [View all] OneGrassRoot Nov 2025 OP

No one making $10s of millions a year is going to convince me that the cutthroat backstabbing vote was a good thing. Nt yaesu Nov 2025 #1

Which is, strangely, exactly what Lawrence O'Donnell tried to do last night. BComplex Nov 2025 #18

I believe Dem messaging gets diluted by attempt to appeal to a wide audience bucolic_frolic Nov 2025 #2

Understood. To offer more clarity about what I envision... OneGrassRoot Nov 2025 #3

That -- and our fascist friendly media that has been fully exposed. W_HAMILTON Nov 2025 #22

Bernie and AOC seem to know how to message. Raven123 Nov 2025 #5

Yep. It is. n/t OneGrassRoot Nov 2025 #6

Couldn't agree more. Yes, republicans control the airwaves. But they have for 40 years. Scrivener7 Nov 2025 #7

I think we are starved for it. There's a lot of "we the people must rise up" talk, but frankly I find that childish. Scrivener7 Nov 2025 #11

How about we attack the media (rather than Democrats) like Republicans did to bias them in the first place? W_HAMILTON Nov 2025 #23

Rah rah! All is well! Everything we are doing is working GREAT!!! And Garland's got this!!! Scrivener7 Nov 2025 #24

That is your response to me saying we should go after the media the way Republicans did? W_HAMILTON Nov 2025 #25

Yes! Cirsium Nov 2025 #26

You think we would be """misbehaving""" by rightfully calling out fascist friendly media? W_HAMILTON Nov 2025 #27

No Cirsium Nov 2025 #28

It actually was, based on the point I was making vs your attempted retort. W_HAMILTON Nov 2025 #34

OK Cirsium Nov 2025 #35

Lawrence O'Donnel was great last night LetMyPeopleVote Nov 2025 #9

Senator Chris Murphy was better. And I'm thinking he's in a better position to know. Scrivener7 Nov 2025 #12

Chris Murphy is a great communicator and explainer. I sing his praises often. yellow dahlia Nov 2025 #29

Well said. He's so sincere and that conveys. n/t OneGrassRoot Nov 2025 #32

Yes. He is a defender of the Constitution and our Democracy. yellow dahlia Nov 2025 #33

Yup, agree 100% Joinfortmill Nov 2025 #10

Keith Olbermann has been saying this for months Greyhead Nov 2025 #13

They need to hire professional marketing/advertising firms that do it ALL: print, television, social media, even LaMouffette Nov 2025 #14

100% correct. CaptainTruth Nov 2025 #15

YES. I "want to hear directly from those we elect in a coordinated, cohesive manner." EVERY DAY. chia Nov 2025 #16

My suggestion for the past several months is holding a Press Conference Every Other Day. Why?.... electric_blue68 Nov 2025 #19

I like it! And time for the podcasts to discuss it. n/t OneGrassRoot Nov 2025 #20

Thanks! Ah, didn't think of that (pod cast discussion). electric_blue68 Nov 2025 #21

And IMHO - Dems need to fire the strategists. yellow dahlia Nov 2025 #30
