@tbonier Air ways are flooded with extreme right media outlets pounding false favorable information about Trump. Democrats are not competing in that market. Media also fails to educate by explaining why a 'worker' supporter has all millionaires/billionaires, in every leadership position.

A shockingly high percentage of swing voters had a favorable impression, in retrospect, of Trump's first term. This is an absolute failure on our part, to allow Trump to rehabilitate his own image with low information swing voters.

Reupping this part of my thread from last night on the ad strategy comparisons, with some fascinating (and depressing) data from the Navigator Survey demonstrating how Democrats failed to disqualify Trump, perhaps assuming he would disqualify himself...
Tom Bonier@tbonier

The Trump campaign avoided positive ads entirely, while the Harris side was more mixed. Somewhat surprisingly, the Dem IEs had almost no pure negatives (traditionally IEs will handle a lot of the hard negatives).

@ColeHefnerTX Why could you not enforce the first one. Too often we do not need new laws; we need to enforce the ones we already have.

Governor Abbott continues to lead with strength and resolve to protect Texas from foreign threats. Issued this morning, his third executive order targeting the Chinese Communist Party ensures our critical infrastructure remains secure from hostile foreign actors. This is a bold and necessary move to safeguard Texas’ economy and national security. Grateful for his leadership in keeping our state strong and independent! #txlege

Texas children are not experimental subjects! I praise Evelyn Brooks for doing the right thing. To stand against the state and its minions on the SBOE takes incredible courage. I thank God for her as a watchman on the wall. Those who fall for this will be held accountable.💯🙏🏻🇺🇸

How can any so called Republican vote for a state owned curriculum that has been proven to be NOT be high quality instructional materials? THANK YOU SBOE Member Evelyn Brooks for your on target 🎯 comments on the dangers of the TEA developed state owned curriculum. Our children deserve better. It is beyond me how others in good conscience could vote to approve it. @TxSBOE @LjforTexas @willhickman @KevenEllisDC @DrYoungSBOE

Musk’s ties to Russia are certainly worthy of investigation, given the importance of his companies’ gov’t contracts. Have any of his contacts w/Putin led to compromising classified info? He owes an explanation, but there must also be an independent inquiry.bbc.com/news/articles/…

@gramstofinn @TxDOT @tx So I’m wondering if that’s the limit for the next budget. My phone screen is small. So I may be missing something obvious.

Top state agency salaries. I don’t remember so many in the leadership team of @TxDOT and @Tx HHSC being bunched at the top of this list. Steve McCraw’s salary, on the other hand, is no surprise. #page8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sao.texas.gov/reports/main/2… #txlege

@ConnieKR016 I'm not sure it's a national mandate. It is just Walters' mandate.

@DianneCallaha16 @BravojfMe @atrupar And that freedom to worship and grow in their faith is why America was founded. Walters is controlling and dictating, not protecting religious freedom. Having a moment of silent prayer is sufficient.

I agree, but it should not be forced on students. I learned about the Bible in Sunday School and Church, also in academia. There are people from different religions and they should have the freedom to worship and grow in their own groups outside of school, separation of church and state.

CNN: Where is your authority coming from to enforce this prayer video to be played in schools? RYAN WALTERS: I appreciate you pushing the left-wing narrative C: It's not a left-wing narrative. I'm literally talking about a petition parents have signed w/more than 14k signatures

What if the Dept. of Education vanished? It's more than just curriculum - it protects civil rights, funds schools, manages student loans, and collects vital data. Without it, schools lose funding, protections weaken, and rural areas suffer most. State plans for our kids matter.

@davidfolkenflik Not articulate, not imaginative, not collaborative, not inspiring, simply building a resume that attracts Trump in order to gain power and what passes for fame. Never have seen a photo of Walters talking face to face with a small group of teachers.

OK state schools chief orders schools to show his religious video. Many districts refuse. (This Oklahoman piece is detailed - down to Qs about the order of bibles for every AP class, and his apparently profligate misspellings.) oklahoman.com/story/news/edu…

@JustTMill His attitude and actions do not display Christianity. He reflects Trump's narcissism, greed and indifference to humanity.
