9. Let the Trump voters get what they voted for, for starters.

Let's not rush in and save them from themselves and their losses of Obamacare, Medicare, Social Security, etc. Let them feel threatened by the loss of those programs.

Also, I don't see how we change the narrative without having our own media network. Faux Noise plays a YUUUUUGE role in politics and influences a large number of the rural and Trump-voting population. We need to de-program these people with the truth.

We need a media sugar daddy or mama who can help us with marketing, messaging, and advancing the Democratic argument.

Al Gore had the right idea, he just had poor implementation. We need a visionary.
