Texas Governor Pardons and Frees Far-Right Gunman Who Killed Garret Foster Who was Pushing Girlfriend’s Wheelchair at a Black Lives Matter Protest
setting a murderer back on the streets.
If democrats don't run ads on this they're useless.
It would just end as another Kyle Shittenhouse. Conservative media would blow him up until he's a star with a chance at running for congress.
You can't keep adhering to the rules when your opponent threw them away years ago.
On the one hand, your Democrats need to run ad/announcement/propaganda campaigns about both their new achievements they brought about this term, like all the domestic fund allocations that are at least aimed at progressive and environment protection departments announced by Biden, all the while showing whoever they can reach about the apparent evil aspirations of the Republicans or conservatives, like pardoning this fascist murderer and potential child abuser before he served his appropriate and law-ordained sentence.
I'm not a U.S. citizen, I am Turk living in Turkey. But even news like this helps me evaluate what's what in the U.S. and who's who. Even though I'm living this far away and getting my news about there from a rather low-people count platform like Lemmy, I'm sure there are a lot of people in the U.S. that don't get news like this on their word of mouth or cable tv information sharing networks, so Democrats utilizing all avenues to make this incident known to everyone would be a better idea than thinking it is a risk about blowing the popularity of this guy.
How else would the achievements of Biden and Democratic government reach me without me seeking it myself otherwise? The genocide part is spread all over the world naturally, and if it were just that reaching me naturally, I'd be demonizing Biden naturally, like any conservative.
And the ads need to be regular people who got help. None of this mellow voiceover in front of patriotic stock images. Just real people who were actually helped by the policies. Film it like Apple's old "Switch" commercials, with ordinary folks on a white background telling us their story.
On which network? Sinclair Media owned local news? Clear Channel Communications, in between Rush Limbaugh reruns and Sean Hannity rants? Bezos's WaPo? Murdoch's FOX? One of the other 15 billionaires who own our public media?
I mean, yeah. Go for it. Tell West Texas good'ole'boy indie voters that a right-wing nut killed a white guy with a black girlfriend in a wheelchair and the sitting Texas governor let him back out to do it again. See how they respond.
Stop. My Penis Can Only Get So Erect. - the good'ole'boy indie voters.
