    They need social media posts too. Highlight the terrible shit that happened, the jobs lost, the terrible covid response, and ask them if thats what they want for this brewing bird flu pandemic again and to have to weather that with even less jobs.

      There’s a lot more than that to draw from.

      Trump repealed 112 climate regulations, left the Paris Climate Agreement, left the WHO, repealed trans care anti-discrimination law, repealed gay rights to beneficiaries, enacted Title 42 and the Muslim ban, repealed the law prohibiting Israeli settlements on Palestinian territory, repealed Net Neutrality, provided tax cuts to the wealthy that further widened our already exploitative wealth inequality, increased tariffs on goods costing the consumers, repealed the ACA without replacement, seated the conservatives in SCOTUS that repealed Roe v. Wade…

        These are all great examples and would work for any human being with an ounce of responsibility and empathy. Unfortunately, most people I have tried to convince to vote for Biden, only care that shit is cheap and taxes are low. We need to attack them from their angles if we want to change their minds. And you’ll never convince business owners that more taxes is good they can’t see past their profits. Its garbage, and its why Trump is popular. Because we somehow have this fucked up swing where shitty Republican policies go into effect when democrats are in office and good responsible democratic policies go into effect when the dipshit Republicans are in office. Making this circus worse.

          That’s true. His tax plan was worse for small businesses and independent contractors. It largely favored the wealthy and corporations. It favored the minority of Americans, so it’s definitely more a problem of awareness than of benefit.

        “You need large communication platforms to get your message out to hundreds of millions of people”

        I dont hate this world, I hate those who make it what it is today. It can be beautiful. Its forced to be hell.

      Don’t just highlight the terrible shit that happened. Biden’s done some things and helped a lot of people. I think they should do ads showing ordinary folks who Biden helped out, in the format of Apple’s old “Switch” ad campaign.

      Normal folks standing in front of a white background talking about who they are and how Biden helped them. “My student loans were just… gone.” “I’m a railroad worker and now I have vacation days.”

      At the end, it’s Biden standing with them saying “I’m Joe Biden and I approve this message.”

      If Democrats need to fall in love, maybe woo them a bit.
