This honestly feels like when Democrats say that they don't need to change anything, they just need to educate voters, as though that's some minor task. You're taking an achievable task for the scope of an election (running a highly, highly aggressive policy plank instead of an uninspiring centrist plank covered in progressive vinyl-wrap) and swapping it for an unachievable task (let's just make MAGA disappear). What's more is that the former achieves the latter, imo. Making the MAGA cult vanish just isn't an actionable item, but it is an outcome. You're never going to get anywhere if you just get stuck at "Sorry, we'd love to try to win this year, but we haven't figured out how to wish MAGA out of existence yet".
I really feel like I'm talking to a brick wall.
Alright, then go and have a good day, dawg!
