Who can guide Democrats back to the issues that citizens are focused on (e.g., cost of living/inflation) so we can make gains in the mid-terms? They really miscalculated this last election

I thought they did address exactly that in the last campaign. Kamala had a plan for that... www.investopedia.com/harris-econo...

The problem is that the Ds “have a plan” usually in a “250 page policy guide” as H Clinton boasted in her debate. But research shows voters don’t vote based on policy. They vote based on partisanship: identity & other emotional factors. GOP is very good at engaging emotions. Democrats suck at it.

Oh...I agree with you about the emotions but have to add that the GOP is very good with LYING to the American people and switching what is relevant or true when it is to their benefit. For ex, changes by presidential EOs are "illegal" when Biden did it ex. student loan forgiveness, but now a judge

should NOT be allowed to stop FOTUS in doing whatever he wants by EO. The GOP has lost all credibility in my view...ALL credibility is gone and has been for years now and I have always been an independent voter.

Plus 54% of Americans can't read at or below the 6th grade level so yes, while their info was out there (Kamala did speak of it during her rallies- the $50k to help small biz, $25k for home buyers, tax credits for families, anti-price gouging laws, etc...), people didn't listen to her.
