I mean, they threw it out and nominated whoever they wanted. There WAS a primary-- Harris wasn’t in it. RFK was making Super Bowl ads for it
With all the anger over the Gaza situation, they waited until the last possible moment and foisted her on us so that there’d be no time force debate
I think it’s of utmost importance to co-opt guns and 2A enthusiasm. We don’t say “You can keep your guns”, we say “You can use your guns! Shoot that way!”
We also need to co-opt anti-liberal rhetoric. It’s important to maintain shared contempt toward common enemies: Basically, men in suits
“Oh, you don’t like unions? Neither does your boss.”
“Middle managers are human shields to protect your CEO from looking you in the eye.”
Moreover, co-opt family values rhetoric: “Defend your family from parasitic health insurers.”
“Defend your family from wage theft.”
“Defend your family from your landlord.”
“Protect your children from health insurance.”
“Protect your children from predatory bank loans.”
“Protect your children from your boss.”
“Protect your children from for-profit education”
We also have to co-opt their hatred of racist accusations
“You’re not racist! Your CEO is.”
