Democrats' 2018 slogan: "For the People"
Axios ^ | 18 Jul 2018 | Alexi McCammond

Posted on 07/18/2018 3:51:33 PM PDT by mandaladon

House Democrats shared their new campaign slogan for 2018, per Politico: "For the People."

Why it matters: Dems are trying to capture what they stand for by simplifying their economy-focused "A Better Deal" message, but neither slogan will inspire Democratic voters the way Trump's "Make America Great Again" broke through with Republicans.

Show less Yes, but: Take it from Rep. Cheri Bustos, who told Politico that no one is "claiming this is poetic ... It’s just a way, in a quick way, to put together the answer to what we stand for.”

The message will focus on using infrastructure to increase wages; highlighting Republican corruption; and fixing health care and prescription drug costs.

If the Dems use “For the People”
The Republicans should use “For the Environment”
Heads will explode.

It doesn’t matter what the message is. The DEMs will keep saying stuff just for the publicity. Most here would see that as a negative. I have much less faith with the rest of the country.

John Morgan probably GAVE them the slogan, since he’s one of them . .............................. lets not forget his #LAW. I’d like to pound his law. Well its really Morgan and Morgan, and Morgan and Morgan, there sure is enough of them. I wonder if they advertise on the inner rood of the FLA ambulances? He has to be doing well, its all you hear on the radio and TV. BTW, he has Political Ambitions. He’s waiting for the right moment. He got Pot legal in FLA, rumor has it that he has a vested interest in the processing plant. Politics baby, it where the big$$$$$ is made.

-—“For the People who are not U.S. Citizens”-—

That’s a little cumbersome.

How ‘bout “For the Aliens”

Too bad the Dems hijacked "Happy Days Are Here Again" oh so many years again. Being a Pubbie hasn't stopped me from liking that song and melody bion. What would be a GOP equivalent from that era?

When Rush was talking about this in comparison to MAGA, it dawned on me what incredible genius it was to choose MAGA as Trump’s slogan.

At first, a few Dems came out and squawked that America was already great, but almost immediately they stopped that. Why? Because the Democrat party’s entire theme is that America is not, and never has been, great. So, Trump got them in a Catch 22. Either they have to admit that America is a great country, or they have to admit that their Messiah, Obama, botched everything and America needs repair.

Sometimes Trump’s genius is so good, it’s scary. :-)
