So beat them at their own game?
Without becoming the worst version of what they hope to defeat, they at least have to acknowledge that the game has changed. Democrats are still trying to make three-point baskets while not doing much more than tut tutting about the fact that Republicans have set up a step ladder and are dumping bags of tennis balls through the hoop on the other side of court.
As much as I agree I don’t see it happening unfortunately.
More on the “fuck the DNC get locally active in politics and coalesce around a better party and candidate” side atm. They’ve had too many chances.
And then what? They have the same problem unless they hack the process and act like Trump.
I don’t have all the answers, I just know the DNC lost my confidence.
They can just lie and do whatever they want as actual policy. To an extent.
You know, like Trump.
No one cares.
Its not very democratic, but here we are. shrug
Gotta fight fire with fire at some point.
Or we can make a fire extinguisher
