GOP contrives polls to spin into headlines and feed to lazy-minded corporate media.

GOP constantly pays for Bullzhit polls to spin into headlines.
They are regularly feeding those poll headlines to every mainstream media outlet.

Dems should be polling constantly on every atrocity and on Project 2025, especially the lies Trump used to get elected.

Ex: Trump is now embracing Project 2025 - Did Trump lie about his involvement in Project 2025 throughout the campaign to mislead Independent voters who believed his denials at the time?

Feed THOSE poll results to every media outlet. Fight them on the battlefield they have had to themselves for far too long.

I remember newt being heavily involved in faxing talking points to regurgitate to the masses. In those days at least the cable news would have more of a balance of guests from both parties, now it’s mostly the gop that gets invited. Hence why our media has done a disservice to the American people.

And hence why we are so ill informed. It’s by design!

even when it is signed, sealed, and delivered to us on a silver platter. If Dems can't find ways to capitalize on the past couple of days it will show me that they're not really interested in doing so.
