The ad would target states that voted for Krasnov. The ad would list the numbers of people on Medicare, Medicaid,, SNAP, Obamacare, the numbers of people in nursing homes, the numbers of rural hospitals.
Then simply make the statement that Krasnov's Big Beautiful Bill is going to kill or shorten the lifespan of millions of people, just to give billionaires trillions of dollars, that they don't need or that some don't want. Can also say it will explode the deficit.
I would start donating again to the many texts I get every day. (I just got 2 right now) I would donate 100 bucks today.
The problem is, Time Matters, it needs to be done now before the Big Ugly Death Bill Passes.

We're being rolled and most of the resistance seems half-hearted, window dressing.
Where is our national party?

I would rather that Democrats did what MSNBC did with the town hall targeting the specific issue of fired federal workers. The fired workers gave their personal stories.
Do a town hall for the specific issue of the gutting of the social safety net. Get a good moderator, get actual people who will die if this bill passes.

(9,625 posts)trumpster voted for him in 2016. Almost reelectd him in 2020. Then again in 2024 knowing that he was going to extend his previous term tax cuts, while having to look for benefits/service cuts to offset some of the extended tax increase.
In the meantime, a trump loving candidate for Governor in Georgia -- who has a good chance to win -- just ran his first ad. It dedicated solely to bashing transgender people. WTF?
Hope we find a solution, more likely many solutions by mid-terms and 2028.

(353 posts)His voters arent some uninformed group that is unaware of whats happening. They will complain for a few minutes about how government let them down without ever recognizing or acknowledging that Trump and his policies are hurting them. Once their outrage is down they will keep voting for the same people that take away things they want. They blame government when they know its Trump

They will only care when it starts hurting them personally.

Heck, they could be just ten seconds:
Trumps birthday parade is costing you $XX,XXX per minute. Enjoy.
Thats it.

(342 posts)there have been pro Trump ads every night after the local news and during the ABC national news for months. Also ads going after my Congressman during the same period. I've never seen political ads so early. Where are the Dems?
