@Bliss Good Morning 🌞 Bliss. Yes the dems have a problem with messaging. It probably wouldn’t do if I was in office. I would be constantly working to get under trumps skin ( I know that sounds nasty 🤢) and be making comments like “ Go ahead play golf. Enjoy it while you can fat boy!” And calling out the MTGs & Gym Shorts Jordan’s for being idiots.
