5. Sorry "green new deal" isn't bringing anyone to the polls

I’ve seen democrats selling this (or a watered down version) for years. No one is buying it. Few people know what citizens united even is. As for the Supreme Court, everyone knows it’s corrupt. The chance to reform it was when Biden was president. He punted on it.

Why do these issues not resonate with the public? Because it’s not directly tied to people’s day to day struggles.

This is the problem when you listen to some bone head on twitter or bluesky or overpay some hack consultant.

The rest are ok. Get back to the basics. Healthcare. Inflation: cost of food, housing, and energy. ICE abuses and accountability.
