(33,525 posts)They're the Magats, driven by racism and little else. Their "great again America" is from the 1850's.
Dumbing down is not a good approach. I don't believe your candidate, Buttigieg, has derived the attention he has with slogans. He's earned our growing respect with something quite different, thoughtful engagement.
Personally, I thought it was insane for the Mayor of a small industrial city to run for President; I feel very differently now, because clearly the Mayor speaks in full paragraphs.
The same is true of my candidate.
We are Democrats. Our primaries should not be dumb assed marketing.
Anyway. I'm enough of an optimist to have not given up on my people. I believe that they can see what cheap carny barking has brought them.
They're in the "fool me once," mode, or better be, or America will be a fallen wasteland within the next decade.
I find this entire exercise to be clutter and worthless.

It is true that there are some people after whom it is useless to chase. I actually think tweet-twittery is a serious problem and in refusing to participate, I am not living, as some people are apparently, in terror of the success and rise of ignorance driven by superficiality.
This may surprise you, but Trump is doing a terrible job, and he is definitely injuring many of the people who blindly supported him. Perhaps there are some, even the most stupid, who can either be demoralized by the results of buying into to tweet-twittery and not vote, or actually even change their vote.

I'm not sold on Warren being the absolute best bet to beat Trump (which is my highest priority), but she always appears to know what she is talking about, she is personable, and she drives the Orange Goon to behave absolutely fucking bonkers just by existing in the world. All 3 of those things are excellent for gaining the favor of indies/undecideds AND drive Dem turnout, I think.
