I've no use for him at all. And candidly those in positions of power who do are exactly the people we desperately needed to have a sense of how dire things are but who don't. Trump is making clear he plans to be a dictator and make elections meaningless and Ezra Klein is acting like it's the 1990s.
This! All of this. It's not the messaging - it's the foreign brainwashing and election interference
It’s a disinformation war, with mainstream and social media complicit in enabling it. Not a messaging problem, like Ezra says.
Tens of millions of rubes of red states and rubes of Wall Street got us here. Ignorant or racist or greedy….choose your MAGA poison.
In successful businesses are the yes men actually qualified?

Public Lib/private MAGA 'centrist' types. trying to back-door 'justify' their ideological choices. "...the media didn't inform me enough; the DEMs didn't feed me the 'right' messages; where is the leadership. " or my favorite, "the Epstein files" (only the right believed DJT would release files😄)
Absolutely.
Not just Ezra Klein, every democrat in washington. All the important ones anyway. They still think peacefully protesting and voting will save the country. Theyre like my grandma who live in her own unicorn-everyone-is-nice-world. Theyve checked out decades ago and still think it cant happen here
The Dems messaging problem is that they’re not trustworthy. They can tell the truth all they want about Trump. People won’t believe they are acting in good faith because they haven’t shown they are.
Pod Save America preparing to debate trans rights is a perfect example. “Maybe we shouldn’t have talked so much about trans rights…” What’s the point of pontificating about how to win an election that is not going to happen???
Thank you. We see no acts by Dems leadership to try and fight back. They have given up (except in a few cases) and are relying on “midterms” as the only solution.
I’m so over them all. Talk about a bunch of clueless idiots. Trump said before he was “elected” that his biggest regret was leaving office & we have these jokers blaming democrats messaging I’ve never seen so many gullible feckless people in my life. Trump is a career criminal not a businessman 🙄
Both can be true.
