Vulnerable Democrats Who Cozied Up To Trump And Won Give Advice To Party

But, do they really think most of the wackadoodle Democrats will listen?

Vulnerable Democrats who won say party must follow their path

House Democratic front-liners have a message for leadership as the party grapples with what went wrong in this year’s elections: Follow our example.

While Democrats were generally wiped out on Election Day — losing the White House and Senate, and failing to flip control of the House — vulnerable Democrats in the lower chamber were a rare bright spot for the party.

Those lawmakers proved highly successful in keeping their seats in tough battleground districts, even in some places where President-elect Trump won by comfortable margins.

As Democratic leaders conduct an election postmortem, the front-liners are urging colleagues to take a page from their playbook, which features a heavy focus on kitchen-table economics while largely avoiding the culture-war battles that were a drag on the party on Nov. 5.

Oh, most are not going to stay away from the Crazy, especially when they are in utterly safe districts.

For Pappas, that meant an outsized focus on two economic concerns facing working-class families: unaffordable housing and the high cost of child care. Both are pressing problems not only in his district, he said, but all across the country. If Democrats want to appeal to more voters, he argued, they have to focus on the pocket-book anxieties that keep them up at night.

“In my district, abortion rights is still a top-testing issue, and people are deeply concerned about the direction of that,” he said. “But I think overall the economic anxiety needs to be front and center in terms of our agenda.”

Of course, the problem there is that Democrats tend to have the wrong answers on the economy, as we saw with Kamala’s “plan”. The fake price gouging may play well with the moonbat base, but, real people know it’s mule fritters. Real people know that the promise to build millions of homes is BS, considering how few EV chargers the government built and how no homes were connected to the Internet despite billions allocated.

“We hammered affordability just over and over and over — obsessively talked about lowering costs — and I outperformed Harris by 11 points in one of the toughest districts in the country,” [Rep Pat Ryan (D-NY)] continued. “So it’s all nothing new here.”

In other words, he sounded like Trump and Republicans. The question now is, how will he vote? In accordance with his campaign, or with the far left Democrats? How will the rest vote?
