“...Don’t forget the press...”
Once again, it goes back to the fact that the other side actively goes after the position where they can control the flow of info, law, opinion, etc.
Nothing will change until our side does the same thing.
Here in PA we passed Voter ID, by something like 70% approval of the folks in the state.
A Democrat Judge nullified it - “for this election only, because there isn’t enough time for people to get photo IDs” And PA went to Jughead for the second time.
What? Really? Are you effing KIDDING me? So when one operative in a position like that can strike down a law (even temporarily) that the MAJORITY of the state wanted passed... that means WE have to have our people in those positions ultimately.
But that in turn means that good people have to in fact run for those positions, and be prepared to take the garbage and smears that the other side will bring to the fight.
If you want to be the enemy, you have to fight HARDER than the enemy - an inconvenient little factoid that the GOP doesn’t seem to grasp.
Correction:
“If you want to BEAT the enemy,”
I'm not convinced that the GOP does want to beat the enemy.
