Political Strategy & Democratic Party Dynamics - The Democratic Party needs to empower voters and embrace its future by enlisting young, Black, Brown, and broke voters [19][21] - Centrist Democrats should stop criticizing progressive figures like AOC, as her followers' votes are necessary [20][21] - Democratic elected officials should speak up loudly, proudly, and without fear; otherwise, they should be replaced [23] - The Democratic Party should emphasize that it is not a corporate party or the party of Wall Street, but a party for working families [22] - Democrats have the facts and public opinion on their side but struggle with political persuasion, needing to empower voters [19] Public Safety & Political Messaging - Republican states have been 133% more dangerous in terms of homicide than Democratic states for the last 25 years, yet Democrats have failed to highlight this [16] - Democrats have allowed Republicans to falsely claim the mantle of being for public safety, despite evidence to the contrary [17] Trump & Political Opposition - Donald Trump is described as a "wannabe dictator" who should be ridiculed and shown no fear [5] - Trump's appeal stems from being an outsider and exploiting Americans' distrust of elected politicians, selling a "bill of goods" [8] - Strength is a language that everyone understands and responds to, particularly in dealing with figures like Trump [8] State vs Federal Power - State prosecution is an important tool to hold accountable those acting beyond their legal authority, even federal agents [1][2] - The President has no power to pardon someone convicted in state court [2]
