Stop saying Trump’s name and blaming him for everything. The word Trump is so maniacally polarizing that the moment you say it — you’ve already lost half the room. You can galvanize the people who hate him without ever mentioning him. And you might actually reach the people who voted for him — which you will never do by attacking him. -Talk about aspiration. -Talk about economic anxiety. -Talk about why people feel left behind and what you’re going to do about 79 million people voted for Donald Trump. You’re not converting a single one of them by saying his name. John Ossoff. Gavin Newsom. Whoever’s next. Learn this lesson now.

Interesting post by @Scaramucci. When 28 comes everyone, R and D, will be exhausted. They will be sick of Trump and looking to the future. Trump won’t be on the ballot and Dems have to talk about general problems (tariffs, inflation, gas prices) and how to fix that to win. However, I don’t think the timing is right just yet. In the midterms, Trump IS effectively on the ballot because you still have agency to affect his power to ruin the country by voting for Democrats. Half a term matters. So I would modify Anthony’s advice to “stop talking constantly in terms of Trump” to “after the midterms”.
