Why Hakeem Jeffries' new slogan for the Democratic Party is so ineffective

[bigtree]

58. doesn't sound like what the author above was bleating about, at all.

...nor does Jeffries assert anywhere that this is the 'new slogan for the Democratic party'

What he said wasn't just misrepresented by this author, he ommitted the parts that actually affect and speak to the everyday concerns and challenges of real Americans that haven't made a fortune writing drivel.

Wonder why he left all the rest out and replaced it with his own cynical take?

"The slogan is emblematic of an approach the party’s leadership always seems to take. They’re so afraid they might offend someone they decline to call out genuine villains. While they’ll criticize Republican attempts to favor the wealthy at the expense of the rest of us, it often sounds like they’re not that displeased with the status quo; they just don’t want to make things worse. Which, of course, says nothing about how they want to make things better."

Why did this author, who certainly has the means and ability to go and look for other things the Dem leader has said recently, bother to mention all of the almost daily excoriations of republicans and the president that Jeffries has taken time to relate?

No, he just cherry-picked this and twisted it into something that he though could be used to opposed the Dem leader. Why? That's the question I have.

Why is he misrepresenting the messaging from the Dem leader who has been almost exclusively focused in republican health care and other cuts in their budget which he has strongly opposed and led his Dem membership to unanimously oppose?

What's the game here selectively nitpicking the Dem leader, mischaracterizing a cherrypicked phrase in a binary political system where Jeffries isn't the actual opponent?

Is anyone concerned that this journo isn't taking any time with his privileged platform to highlight any of the other things Jeffries is advocating, much less explaining anything in relation to the phase that he's so blithely representing here is some abstraction removed from the totality of the leader's statements and efforts?

What is anyone with a brain supposed to take from this except a weak attack on the Dem leader that has nothing to do with even the substance of what Jeffries is trying to convey in the remarks he chose to attack?

Where in this screed is any opposition to republicans. Where is the advocacy in this screed that comes even close to what the Dem Leader is practicing almost daily?

What is the actual value in this, other than to absolutely distract and divert readers from that substance Jeffries is bothering to relate?
