Take it Personal, Make Them Pay !!

[chieftain]

I hope but am not confident that the Democratic Party will drive home the message that those people who the GOP has hurt take it personal and make them pay for their actions and rhetoric.
If you are about to be kicked off extended unemployment benefits and tired of being portrayed as lazy, make them pay.
If you lose your already meager SNAP benefits and are insulted by GOP rhetoric, make them pay.
If a member of your family had hopes for a path to citizenship and they cringe at the GOP's angry anti-immigrant diatribes, make them pay.
If you are on Medicaid in a state governed by say-no Republicans and are barred from getting the health insurance and health care you need, make them pay.
If you are a woman who lives in a state governed by GOP religious zealots who have seriously curtailed reproductive rights while patting you on the head and telling you these measures are for your own good, make them pay.
If you are LGBT and you resent being vilified by RW homophobes and being denied your rights as a human being, make them pay.
If you are sickened by the gun violence in this country and horrified by the unholy alliance between the GOP and the NRA, make them pay.
If you are an American and you are outraged by concerted efforts by the Republican Party to abridge the right to vote while whining about fraud, make them pay.
I am sure that a campaign with these themes will drive the pundits, operatives and go-along get-along Democrats to their fainting couches. Sobeit.

2. One can hope but I wouldn't hold my breath.

I have zero faith in the repug base realizing just who is holding them down and making them (all of us) pay the price for the greed of the GOP and the 1%.

3. A certain number of right wingers will never change their minds

The sentiment in this post is especially important for those who vote only in presidential years. Many people don't even realize there are other elections--they are the ones with desperate and disorganized lives who are hurt the most. We need to reach them.

4. Thanks, that is the point I am trying to make.

There are a ton of people out there who have been personally maligned and hurt by the GOP. We need to mobilize them.

5. Understood and did not mean to be a downer. Hope floats.

Make them Pay!

Next time focus more on the targets (legislators) and how one can make them pay.
