  1. EVERYONE - JUST STOP going on about policies Robert is 100% RIGHT. The average voter NEVER walks into a voting booth thinking about policies especially things like foreign policy. They want something simple like Obama's "Hope & Change" or Trumps MAGA. Go and watch Mark Blyth explain why someone like Elizabeth Warren DID NOT win the nomination in 2020 despite having the best understanding of banking reform that any politician might ever have had. Its here on YouTube just search "mark blyth trumpism" posted by McMaster Humanities. The video is titled "Mark Blyth - Global Trumpism and the Future of the Global Economy" and the question is at 1:19:54 YES its from 2019 but its themse are just as important now as they were then. If you are interested in how the world works then the whole video is worth the time and there's a brilliant explanation of why Bitcoin is a joke just before the Warren question. Listen carefully to what he says and you'll see why Trump's COVID response ended his presidency. All Biden had to do was say "I'm not that stupid!" Harris NEEDS to have 1 BIG SIMPLE SLOGAN which right now is "We aren't geriatrics! and we want to do stuff" which has a lot of people excited. Obama's was "Hope & Change" which people wanted but he failed at. Trump's was MAGA which tapped into how a lot of people felt and why his followers still believe in him. Bidens was "I'm NOT Trump" which tapped right into the suburban housewives who hated Trump. Harris & Walz need something very simple like "Our NEW future" or "A REAL Future" with an emphasis on "we are here for YOU" If they want a "lets go Brandon" they could go with "FTO" as in F--K the Oligarchs. It doesn't matter what they actually say just so long as people have something to chant.
