Some in U.S. are so busy working 3 jobs and to the bone that the only democracy they worry about is the food they can put on their table. That’s democracy to them. One challenge @JoeBiden must address is the working poor and their daily struggles. Democracy message isn’t on their radar.

As a YouTube comment read: “this is no longer about Trump’s character. It’s about ours.”

I’ve said this previously—specifically that these elections really come down to whether people who vote for someone have decency and morality in their hearts.

My point: LEAVE NO DOUBT. You cannot afford to hide your accomplishments. You must shout them from the rooftops. You must rise above the noise and lies. Not just, “I’m Joe Biden and he’s a convicted felon.” In 2024 that’s not enough. COURT YOUR BLACK BASE!

popcornreel OP ,
@popcornreel@mas.to avatar

In short: You mustn’t presume people are decent. You must challenge people to fight for DECENCY and democracy. Make the stakes personal to EVERYONE. Democracy depends on the decency in the hearts of each and everyone. Point to the past (civil rts) vs now (GOP). Elevate and energize electorate!

It is crucial that in Joe Biden you give people something to vote for—not just anti the Convicted Felon. That may be the difference between getting 10 percent more people off the couch who previously may have said, “I’m not voting” versus those people staying rooted to the couch.

THINK ABOUT IT: Why on earth would people who are undocumented cross the border to commit violent crime? People in this situation would have every incentive NOT to commit any crime once inside the United States. Why, you may ask? Answer: THEY DON’T WANT TO BE DEPORTED BACK!

It behooves Democrats NOT to take the high road in this campaign. This is a campaign, NOT an inauguration. You don’t take the high road against FASCISTS. You don’t take the high road against Project 2025 and GOP who attack the rule of law and the country. THE GLOVES MUST COME OFF

At the heart of all this fascism and authoritarianism in the U.S. is the desire by powerful white men (and numerous other people) for WHITE MEN in power to STAY IN POWER—and to stay in power for as long as possible before more conscious BLACK and BROWN people (not the Tim Scotts, etc) are elected by an increasingly Blacker and Browner voting base. Why do you think all this racist gerrymandering by Republicans exists and has been going on for DECADES? HELLO!?!?

This is why @POTUS @JoeBiden must run not only against Orange 34 but the ENTIRE REPUBLICAN FASCIST PARTY.

Any time you have almost the entire Republican Party come out and attack the jury system and the criminal justice systemic process—that’s an attack on the U.S.

REPEAT: To the @DNC @JoeBiden @BidenHQ—DO NOT ONLY make this about ONE MAN. You must ALSO make this about THE WHOLE REPUBLICAN PARTY and their AUTHORITARIANISM. The Supreme Court, these GOP state legislatures—ALL OF IT. I know you are institutionalists but the GOP MUST GO! #Biden

One of the reasons Hillary Clinton failed to win the electoral college in 2016 is that her campaign was run OH SO POORLY. (As was her 2008 campaign.) Her ‘16 campaign ran ads against Orange Thug morning, noon and night—but didn’t sufficiently lay out why voters had to vote for HC.

popcornreel OP ,
@popcornreel@mas.to avatar

The white political consultants controlling the money and deciding where it is spent in @JoeBiden’s campaign must direct MUCH MORE of that $ to spend in BLACK COMMUNITIES & outreach. Go into Black communities. Black folk are your strongest voting bloc. DON’T TAKE US FOR GRANTED!

popcornreel OP ,
@popcornreel@mas.to avatar

The truly maddening thing is that @DNC, @JoeBiden are spending all this time going after white suburbanites and so-called “swing voters” (and I think swing voters are an effing MEDIA MYTH) and not locking down BLACK VOTERS (95% of whom voted for JB in 2020.) Lock down your BASE!

popcornreel OP ,
@popcornreel@mas.to avatar

President Biden and surrogates MUST visit different Black communities. @JoeBiden knows well that w/o Black voters he’d have LOST in 2020. There must be an aggressive push, appeal, LISTENING, and education. Tell Black voters what GOP are taking and what you & Dems are GIVING THEM.

popcornreel OP ,
@popcornreel@mas.to avatar

I strongly believe @JoeBiden will win this general election in Nov and by near-landslide proportions. There is a lot of noise. Much corp news media noise. A lot of noise on social media. None of it is a surprise. The election won’t be close. All I’m saying is: LOCK IT DOWN, JOE!
