Leftward Expansion takes a look at Congressional Democrats representing districts won by Trump in the 2020 Presidential race. We examine what issues they campaigned on, how they spoke to their voters, their personalities, and their ideology that made winning in a red district possible in this hyper-partisan era. We think that other Democrats running in conservative areas around the United States can draw wisdom from these strategies to win their own elections!
In this episode, we go over the Senate: what is was meant by the framers to be, the graveyard of progress it has become today, and what can be done for the Democrats to overcome its hurdle moving forward.
In this special mini-episode we go over the background of the two senate races in Georgia, the bad omens, the good omens, and Brett's personal thoughts on what will be the outcome of the race.
Brett talks about improving Democrat's policy pitching and how this can lead to connecting with voters. The problems are clearly there, why won't the party jump on promising to fix them? The answer is more complicated than it seems.
Your host Brett dissects the conservative media ecosystem, how it became so powerful, its impact on American politics today, and how Democrats can overcome it to win future elections.
I examine the results of the 2020 US Presidential election and what it means for the democratic party in the years to come. I take the good and the bad to make suggestions for democrats to improve their numbers in the future.
