Economic message...this is why they still don’t get it. Trump is about economic policies that will actually work. Style only works if there is substance

They’re still missing the fact that Trump is direct and concrete, and his policies will work. They are trying to “learn from Trump” so they can continue to try to manipulate us into their tired old policies that were never intended to work for us. Their goal is still to do whatever it takes to regain a permanent majority to enact their continued looting and weakening of our country.

If the Democrats believe any of the totally off-base nonsense this man has written about why Hillary lost and Trump won, the Democrats will continue to lose and lose big.

“and how the Democrats can rebuild their economic message”

IOW, how they can repackage their lies.

Trumps appeal is easy to figure out, IMO.

1. He was a familiar name, face, and personae who was generally liked—even if he wasn't taken entirely seriously—and radiated confidence born of success.

2. He appealed directly to the people wherever they were and spoke with sincerity, delivered simple messages, with clear objectives.

3. He made friends of former opponents and built a coalition of support from them.

4. He campaigned in the general the same way he did in the primaries—he was never phony.

5. And perhaps most importantly: no matter who attacked him nor when, he was not afraid to fight back and often went on offense afterwards.

blah blah blah

Here’s one for you liberal urinalists: Trump spoke directly to the people, in simple and clear language that everyone understood without talking-heads to translate for them. Liberals called him stupid, an embarassment, and the candidate with a 4th grade vocabulaty. So, let’s see them copy Trump’s style.

They couldn’t do it, they would choke.

We need to talk about monopoly power, and the harms it causes, especially as Trump doesn’t take it up.

I bet this dweeb can't name a single monopoly that he as a Democrat is allowed to hate.

The author sometimes gets close to being on target, but right before he hits the target, suddenly veers wildly off course. Which is good for us, since he still doesn't have a clue.

Trump talked about jobs. All the time. This gets lost in the coverage, which focused on the inflammatory scandals. [...]

It’s the first and most consistent thing he discusses. It’s implied that he’s speaking of a specific kind of job, a white, male, breadwinning manufacturing job.

No, actually its not implied at all that he is talking about white jobs. He is talking about jobs for Americans. Here's something progressives don't know, but Trump does. What is the number one concern in poll after poll for black adults? Jobs. Not police shootings, not racism. Jobs. Then education. When Trump speaks about jobs and failing schools in inner cities, he spoke directly to black middle class adults and their top concerns.

What Trump has done is put a wedge between the black middle class, the white blue collar, and illegal immigrants. The democrat party must choose which they will support. Any move to support illegals will be used by Trump to drive that wedge deeper until finally blacks and the blue collar will be all republican.

YIKES....I just read the whole article and this guy is nuts; completely, utterly, out of his freaking mind, or what little of it is left in working order.

I have NO idea who he is, but he is soooooooooooooooo over the cliff/so far gone/so brainwashed in absurdities, that it was a struggle, for me, to stop laughing at the crap he wrote.

I remember watching the debates with everybody worrying about who looked the most presidential and who scored the most points, and remarking how most of what Trump said didn’t even relate to the questions but was actually a sales pitch to the rust belt.

Hillary was preening while Trump was campaigning.

Poor clueless lib indeed

The strategy of faking economic news does not work. Everyone knows people are out of work and that the unemployment rate is not in the 4% range.

A nice try but a swing and a miss. They just cannot believe that ultimately, racism is not at the bottom of it all.

LOL - so the problem is how to convince people that you are right. It has nothing to do with actually being right. “The People” know when you are trying to enslave them. There is no correct rhetoric to convince them to want slavery. That is the Democrats’ conundrum. And it only took me a few lines of text to define their problem. Perhaps if they didn’t want to enslave others they would have better luck. . .but then, they would be Republicans.

He’s at least at square one, beginning to realize how screwed the Democrats are if Trump delivers on a fraction of what he’s been talking about. It’s just dawning on this guy that the vast majority of the “working class” don’t want a $15.00 an hour job flipping burgers or an increase in their welfare payments; they wan’t an actual productive and remunerative role to play in society. The Democrats know that culturally they are way out of step with the working class, but they thought that they could at least appeal on “economic issues” by tossing out their cornucopia of welfare benefits. Now they’re going to start to understand that that won’t do the trick.

Liberals don’t have an economic message. Their entire philosophy amounts to growing govt and collecting taxes so they can filter money to those that will help them gain and maintain political power. That kind of policy leads to an oligarchy. One that by it’s very existence leads to the poverty of all others.

The problem for liberals is they can never admit what their policies ultimately lead to. Liberals have to lie their asses off and claim to be the opposite of what they really are.

Libs want to rebuild their economic message. Hmmm. Maybe something different from Das Kapital would be a healthy step.
