@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social: “Democrats' messaging is breaking through. I'm listening to voters in the focus groups — they're saying back what Democrats are putting out there, which is they are cutting your programs, programs that benefit you in order to give tax cuts to very rich people.”

The discourse around tariffs has been “things will get more expensive” but I am here to tell you that I am knee deep in reporting on this subject and I strongly suspect that if super high tariffs endure, it will shift to *certain items cease to be available at any price*

Cutting Medicare and Medicaid is wildly unpopular. That's why they're trying to jam these draconian cuts through right out of the starting blocks, before the American people tune into what's happening.

We need to buy time.

Those "surgical" and "targeted" cuts to health agencies the Trump administration promised?

They included people working on emergency preparedness (including birth flu), Medicare, Medicaid, medical devices, maternal health and more.

No mystery what we're seeing here:

-Purges of law enforcement and prosecutors
-Taking bribes for lenient treatment while threatening enemies with persecution
-Pardoning violent/paramilitary allies

Good surprises since 2020:
Old people became way more Democratic
EC bias declined
R's have nominated terrible candidates

Bad surprises:
Zoomers are really right wing now
Tech moving right
Non-white support cratered faster than I thought it would
TikTok has been really bad

"When Democrats insist that Trump had no ground game, they ignore the right wing’s investment and presence in spaces that are not purely electoral and that engage people year-round," writes Astra Taylor.
Democrats’ much-touted ‘ground game’ was a disaster. Here’s how to fix it
Cable ads and bussed-in volunteers don’t cut it any more. If the party wants to win, it must engage voters in a collective push for change
