Just a thought, but perhaps Democrats should look at the government they might be forced to shut down not as turf to defend but as territory occupied by a proto-fascist regime. nymag.com/intelligence...

How Democrats can message: 1. Check social media. 2. Talk about the thing social media is talking about. If inflation is in the social headlines, talk about inflation; if it's Epstein, talk about Epstein; if it's DC, talk about DC. Two tweets per day, and be harsh about it.
