Deep dives

Amid anxiety in the Democratic operative and consultant class, there is a search for new ideas to improve the current strategy. Suggestions include involving Never Trump Republicans in the campaign, focusing on the abortion issue, and combatting age concerns.
Trump's Rhetoric and Language
The podcast delves into the language and rhetoric used by Donald Trump and the potential impact it has. It compares Trump's provocative statements to Hillary Clinton's 'basket of deplorables' quote and highlights the asymmetry in our political discourse. While Republicans are allowed to mock and deride parts of the country and its people, Democrats face backlash for criticizing rural America. The podcast emphasizes the danger of dehumanizing language and its potential consequences, citing instances of violence that have occurred. It suggests that Joe Biden should call out Trump's language and make it known to the public.
Trump's Extreme Immigration Crackdown
The podcast discusses a New York Times story revealing Stephen Miller's interview about Trump's extreme immigration crackdown plans if he wins re-election. Miller's proposal involves rounding up undocumented individuals in the US, detaining them in camps, and conducting massive deportations without due process. The podcast expresses concern and highlights the potential devastating effects on the economy and the lives of millions, including American citizens who are children of undocumented immigrants. It points out that Trump is attempting to make immigration a central issue in the election and suggests that Biden needs to counter with a comprehensive immigration plan while also highlighting the unpopularity and cruelty of Trump's proposals.
In an unhinged Veterans Day speech, Trump promises to remove the "vermin" who dare to oppose his agenda, while his top advisor outlines a terrifying second-term immigration plan: mass deportations, camps for undocumented immigrants, and enforcement raids by the National Guard. Meanwhile, Democrats are giving Joe Biden a lot of advice he doesn't need, and Tim Scott drops out of the Republican primary. Will it matter?
