In a weird coincidence, I have that very Sweet Valley book in my hands at the moment. I just showed it to my therapist and discussed how detrimental that series was to me when growing up! I had no idea that Francine Pascal died. I feel a little bad now, because I just talked about how angry I am at her for writing the books the way she did!
As Tom Friedman said this morning, calling Trump supporters “weird” is going to alienate them and, more importantly, the swing voters—no better way to prove Dems are snobby elitists. Why do Dems continue to be so dumb re being shrewd campaigners? Riding what Dems think is their moral high-horse is not enough. Insulting the opposition is a sure way to lose.
I don’t agree. While I personally deplore name calling, the MAGAts have been calling Democrats names for years and still are. “Weird” is pretty mild compared to what tfg says about Kamala. How woul you characterize the name-calling from the right? Are they elitist, alienating the undecided voters?
Of course they’re not elitists, but they may be alienating the undecided with their name-calling. Dems should not do the same. Find other ways to be effective.
