This is How Democrats Can Go On Offense and Fight MAGA with Anat Shenkar Osario

Democratic leadership and its corporate consultants continue to play prevent defense and "possum" in the hopes of regaining power. But, what do they stand for and who are they fighting for?
Democrats 'Play Dead' Strategy Will Be the Death of the Party

Folks, pardon me for the previous post! It was a massive Substack glitch that only recorded 20 seconds!

Doh!

Here’s the full video! I alerted Substack, and they’re looking into it.

I’m joined by Anat Shenker-Osorio, a political strategist and the Principal and Founder of ASO Communications, who has done the work, compiled the data, and created winning messages for progressive candidates.

Based on her research, she makes the argument that Democrats must actually promote bold policies that reflect their alleged goal of fighting fascism, uplifting marginalized communities, and creating economic equality. Instead, they choose the path of least resistance and continue moving to the right and punching to their left. They are taking the James Carville approach of playing “possum” and then stumbling into power after Trump’s collapse.

How’s that working out, folks?
