The Democratic Party must use the core MAGA voter base to its advantage in the upcoming midterm elections, a political analyst has claimed.
Russ Baker believes the hypocrisy of the dedicated Donald Trump voters will give Democrats the edge at the polls later this year. Writing in his Substack, the WhoWhatWhy editor-in-chief called on Democratic representatives to hone in on a critical voting group that would react to seeing MAGA hypocrisy.
He wrote, “As I’ve indicated, the possible themes that might resonate are myriad. But it’s likely that the brutality of the administration and its effort to actually steal an election offer the best chance of connecting with the heads and hearts of enough Americans.
“Here’s just a sample of the kinds of things worth advertising: With Trump twisting senatorial arms out of sockets to nuke the filibuster and pass the diabolical SAVE Act, if he succeeds, around 70 million American women who took their spouse’s surname will have all kinds of problems proving their identity at the polls to cast a vote. That’s because their birth certificates are under different names.
“Presumably, this will resonate with a critical voting group, who — regardless of their party preference — will be none too happy to learn that their citizenship is in doubt thanks to a maliciously misnamed piece of legislation.”
Baker went on to suggest there needs to be a more focused campaign from the Democratic Party on the hypocrisy of MAGA voters and the Republican Party’s rhetoric.
He added, “WHY aren’t Dems running a huge ad campaign on this? With footage of Trump crowing that if the SAVE Act passes, Republicans won’t lose an election for 50 years!
“I want to reiterate a point I made earlier: A reliably solid issue to win on is the MAGA right’s hypocrisy. Or if that’s too big a word, maybe ‘These Guys Lied To You.’ And then present all the examples where the Trump Gang just made it up or did the opposite of what they promised.”
