Democrats would do well to get out of the bubble
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
I am extremely concerned that Democrats, specifically Democratic pundits and activist are living in a huge echo chamber, a bubble even bigger than the characterized by the Right Wing. While many sit back in their aura of superior intelligence, the GOP field are lying to the hearts of many yearning to get out of the morass that is their lives. Never do those in the GOP tell them that their economic woes are a direct result of GOP policies that keep the boots on their necks.
Instead of actively engaging the community to counteract much of the fallacies, many simply sit back believing that Americans cannot fall for the silly train. But the fact is we have a party, the Republican Party, whose current policies hurt the very people who vote for them, yet they hold more offices of consequence than Democrats. The proof is in America’s political reality.
