Democratic Party Rebuild

[KFBF]

People only care about what his daughter says is because she’s his daughter, there’s pressure on him to make a comment by default and he hasn’t.

I disagree. They're going after her because she's a public figure. They're going after people that work at Dollar Tree so of course they're going to go after someone that appears on TV and works for the WWE.

The rock could easily put out a milquetoast statement to satisfy the news outlets bet hasn’t. He could easily put out a statement to score cheap points with his conservative fans but he hasn’t.

Why would he put out a statement that could potentially upset people when he can just say nothing.

Newsom’s statement is probably phony because it wouldn’t surprise me if Newsom was a psychopath that doesn’t feel real empathy. If he didn’t experience real empathy it would make sense why his overreaction comes off as a massive miscalculation for his political future

The miscalculation was doing a podcast to get into the minds of Republican voters and choosing to speak with Bannon and Kirk. Then doubling, tripling, quadrupling down on it ever since. I see no reason to think he's galaxy braining this. Whether he actually liked Kirk or is pretending to like Kirk is a distinction without a difference.

You’re being purposefully obtuse.

If she wasn’t Rock’s daughter it wouldn’t make headlines. That’s why articles include her being rocks daughter in the headline.

His silence is deafening, by saying nothing he is also saying something

You posited that people only care what she said because she's his daughter. I disagree with that assertion.

What is it that you believe is being communicated by his saying nothing?

He doesn’t fukk with Kirk on principle

He doesn’t fukk with Kirk on principle

Ha, I think that's a pretty generous interpretation to give towards a non-statement. I don't know whether he is a fan of Kirk or not, but given his, lets say, “incoherent” politics up to this point, I don't think it can be ruled out because of the absence of a statement saying he does. I have no doubt he’d much rather his movie do well than eulogize/admonish Kirk. So absent some kind of movement to boycott the movie (this is very much on the table) without him saying something, I doubt he will.

Agree to disagree.

Powerful words from former senator manchin. Voices like his surely will play an important role in the rebuild.

How do they change this around? I don't think Dems did enough to push the advantage with young people when they had it. Now I'm not sure how they get it back.

Probably not much they can do unless people get tired of MAGA. We're probably looking at GOP control for a long time.

They control the media so it's hard to see much changing.

We probably can start by going in the direction voters have been asking for for about a decade.



Or we can just keep worrying about the republican boogie man and their framing

Need moderate versions of his message or socialist in general we know what way we need to go

if they team up with Taylor Lorenz the rebuild is dead @Outlaw

The media doesn’t matter when your jobless broke and hungry. Just like every other time people will come crawling back to the adults in the room. You’re seeing it right now with all these special election over performances. The issue will be keeping them from giving into their racist instincts after 2028.
