Look I’m a communist from Kentucky and I am continually at odds with the Kentucky Democratic Party- and I don’t always agree with Andy Beshear’s politics- but he ran a campaign in Kentucky that rarely ceded that the Republican framework was correct and won twice.
Governor Andy Beshear, in a Trump +30 state, gives advice to Democrats: Do not throw LGBTQ+ people under the bus, it will not work.
His advice to dems: Lead on your values.
This man ran on a fully inclusive campaign in 2023 and won. He received the same kind of ads Harris did.
