Oklahoma, on the other hand, appears to really be a shithole country.

I believe it was the only state last year in which every single county voted for Trump. And it's also the state that has brought us the total shitshow of Ryan Walters, the crazed, fanatical, Bible-thumping ultra-MAGA grifter and moral hypocrite who is currently the OK Public Schools Superintendent. So yeah, MAGA shithole country for sure.

The real question is can Democrats effectively tie Trump and Republicans to his increasingly unpopular (even hated) tariff and other destructive policies, like gutting Medicaid and going after vaccines? If they can they should do well next year, but if not it may be another long election season for them. Given that we're talking about Democrats and messaging I'm not holding my breath.

I just don't get this frequent hand-wringing. If the economy is in the dumps, the midterms practically take care of themselves. And if Trump's approval rating is under 40%, same.

We've already seen on these threads shifts in the congressional ballot. Is that because of Dem messaging, or because Trump is shitting the bed?

James Inhofe was best known for his stunt with a snowball on the floor…….disproving climate change.

He was a perfect representative of Oklahoma.
 
An AP late July poll reveals that people are beginning to be concerned about Trump's competence as a president. Yes he is corrupt and immoral, but we thought he would be good at governing the country and making our lives better but now...

Half the country believe Trump policies have hurt them
20% say his policies have made no difference in improving their lives
25% say his policies have helped them ( shout out to HY, calla, and ram )

50% of indys say his policies have had a negative impact

campaign tip for Dems : Don't run on Trump's corruption and threat to democracy; run on Trump's and the GQP's incompetence in governing the country and improving your lives. This message will resonate with voters. Sounding the alarm about a threat to our democracy and the corruption rot in the GQP will not.

It can be both, but I completely agree his incompetence should be the main message.

I'm not a political strategist or psychologist, but it might be more effective to run against his failed policies. Incompetence could come across as good ideas poorly executed. While they may be in many cases poorly executed, they are without a doubt bad ideas and failed policies that are not improving the lives of most Americans.

Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. Incompetence at not just failing to improve people’s lives, but doing unnecessary things that have made them much worse.

But the "doing unnecessary things that have made them much worse" isn't incompetence. It's intentional. The trump administration's incompetence (I believe the 2nd term is more competent than the first term) has been our saving grace. If they were more competent, things would be worse.
