Dems can do it the Rachel way -- same tired message (Trump's bad!), only loudly. And continue losing. Or, they can advocate for something new. Not just in NYC but in deep red places like Nebraska. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Do you understand that NYC votes 80% Dem.

Duhhhh. Do you understand that Missouri is deep red? Do you look at opinion polls about things like radically taxing the rich? About single-payer health care? Yeah, unimportant because that doesn't sit well with the donor class. And by the way, your guys, Cuomo and Adams, are also Dems.

Remember this? 7 years ago. Quick screenshot i could find is from before final results, but a Missouri attempt to impose anti-union "right-to-work" laws went down to flaming defeat. When you provide real alternatives - not "things are bad, send us money" - people listen.
