I agree with your first sentence comment. Our "message" is not what we say, it's only what gets widely disseminated by the media. The angry demand for "better messaging" is a non-productive rant.

If I had a bully pulpit I would happily quote Huffman's speech and at the end, add that support for Trump is support for the destruction of our country and indistinguishable from acts of treason.
