Today I am wondering how Democrats hope to win this 2024 election when oligarch Trump loving owners of almost all the national media control and manufacturer the narratives. We’ve all observed that the media does not report the facts, it reports narratives and opinions. Those narratives and opinions largely driven by Trump co-conspirators. Then of course there are the Russian operatives who are literally poisoning the minds of Americans with anti-Democrat messaging and untruths on social media every hour of every day. And, low-life scum like Elon Musk donate $100M’s to Trump and the anti-democracy entities with no repercussions. Democrats really suck at counter programming the constant lies, gaslighting, sociopathic messaging from the Cult. Democrats are too weak and PC to attack instead of always being on the defense ( and they exploit that fact). Democrats always seem to have to beg for every $5 they can get while Trump is given money by the USs (and foreign adversaries) most wealthy (greedy and souless) donors. It’s very hard to remain confident in these times.

Everything you've said there is true, but history is on our side.
The problem is, as MLK observed, the arc of the moral universe is long. "But it bends toward justice."
