Everybody knows what the Democratic message is: Government Good. Republican: Government Bad.

I find the idea mystifying that if things are explained to Republican voters they'll listen and realize Republican policies work against them. Why would they listen, they didn't listen to Trump when he told them just what he was going to do. So many say they would vote for him again.
