At donor retreats and in pitch documents seen by The New York Times, liberal strategists are pushing the party’s rich backers to reopen their wallets for a cavalcade of projects to help Democrats, as the cliché now goes, “find the next Joe Rogan.”

[...]

The first out of the gate has been Chorus, a well-publicized liberal nonprofit group co-founded by the Democratic influencer Brian Tyler Cohen.

But others have stayed under wraps until now. In November, Ms. McBride and other liberal operatives gathered in Washington for a series of meetings to survey the election wreckage. At the headquarters of American Bridge, one of the largest Democratic donor networks, they eventually hatched a plan for a for-profit media company called AND Media, which stands for “Achieve Narrative Dominance.”

The company, incorporated in March, says it is aiming to raise $45 million over the next four years. The group hopes to have a $70 million budget over that time frame based on predictions of $25 million in revenue. It says it has raised $7 million so far. Ms. McBride and Christian Tom, who led digital strategy for the Biden White House, have pitched the company to American Bridge donors as a broad cultural project.

Bit idea - Trump nukes the economy yet it's a bloodbath for the dems because they remained worse than useless and have no message other than "Vote!"

People saying Trump is killing the economy and the #1 proof is... the stock market going down.

After years of "Bernie bros" and even some Dem playing with the idea that billionaires and Wall St are bad or at least deserve to pay more taxes etc, the first proof that Trump is bad is the damn line going down.

They say this unironically and expected this to resonate with the same people that voted from Trump when the line was also going up and the Biden team celebrated it. Bidenomics shit and liberal news asking themselves why people hate them when the "economy is doing so great". Go to reddit during the tariff crash, it was literaly this leopardatemyface shit but all stock market line go down pearl clutching shit.

And now that the market did the 180 all those dems look like clowns as expected. They have no message, even when they try its blatant stupidity and hipocrisy. The economy is only crashing when the line goes down, tell that to the Trump voter that suffered years of Bidenomics inflation shit "everything is great" lol.
