How can Dems win rural voters?

[It’s so Joever]

I think it has to do with explaining their policies. This election, their message was for the most part, anti-Trump, and I think in hindsight they could've done a better job of explaining to voters, particularly those in these rural communities, why the Democratic platform would benefit them.

Voters don’t vote on policy. Period.

As for the answer?
Well it’s not easy, but we need to complete the steps of the GOP but in a modern context.
Think about it, GOP talk radio and FOX News are what powered the rise of the red, not some national yearning for trickle down and some sudden hatred of Roosevelt and the likes.

These rural communities are basically just bubbles, where any information spread will concentrate in that community. This makes a lot of small towns ripe spots for a Progressive takeover through manipulation.

The GOP has been actively endorsing and engaging North Korea/communist style brainwashing of millions of Americans since the 90s. This is how they have remained in powe despite theoretically benign the least viable entity in existence.
Nobody likes their policies, nobody likes Mitch, it’s all brainwashing

The truth is, an entire generation is lost, unbrainwashing the American people would require a massive program similar to how Germans were in brainwashed in the post WW2 era, and we can’t do anything like that until we have a strong mandate, that’s puts us in a bit of chicken/egg dilemma.

However, the good news is that the FOX monopoly will not last. As a matter of fact, most traditional news networks are screwed because the generational preferences for finding validation for dumb opinions has increasingly turned towards social media, which has a somewhat different dynamic than TV or talk radio.

However, the idea is the same, we need magnetic personalities to work for the Democrats as liberal influencers for the younger generation. They should be prominent on Instagram/YouTube/TikTok and we must have several of them so people have the illusion of a variety of choices.

Instead of pumping money into getting some elderly Demosaur in Kentucky to vote for McGrath, we should spend almost all our resources into creating Sean Hannities, Tucker Carlsons, and yes...Donald Trumps.
There has got to be some strong psychological reasons they gain traction and have such loyal bases, and I believe their success must be replicated by Democrats.

Most importantly, we must expand broadband and internet services to rural places with lower info specifically so we can target these areas and exploit their new voters. The stronger of a monopoly we can have on these areas, the better the effect.

It’s not about policy, it’s stupidity and playing to the crowd.

They can't because everything about the contemporary Democratic Party seeths with disdain and contempt for rural people.  You can't have a liberal media/ruling class that openly ridicules "small town" values and takes aim at rural conservatives (like Bill Maher and Chelsea Handler have been doing for decades) and not expect it to affect Democrats' electoral chances in the Heartland.  The change that happened during the Obama years was two-fold:  the "Jon Stewart" generation of Democratic staffers and activists (college kids of the 1990s/2000s, basically) came into professional politics, and Democratic leadership caved to their worst instincts in painting their Tea Party opposition as "rubeish" yokels.

Bull, the media is controlled by brainwashing communist GOPers who have destroyed the American people.

They can't. They are a rich suburban white party who looks down on rural voters and working class voters. Thanks Obama!

No, we look down on idiots and traitors. If you happen to be rural or working class, that doesn’t change anything.
Sorry you can’t handle being asked to act like a human being.
