Democrats hold lessons on how to talk to real people

Senate Democrats geared up for battle with President Donald Trump by preparing to talk to people who voted for him — and by hearing from one of his arch-nemeses.

Gathering in Sheperdstown, W.Va., Democrats were scheduled to hear from liberal political operative David Brock on Thursday, who ran a session called “Hold Trump Accountable” with Center for American Progress CEO Neera Tanden and Priorities USA CEO Guy Cecil. Earlier in the day, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) moderated a “discussion with Trump voters," according to a draft schedule obtained by POLITICO.

Former Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear (D), along with Sens. Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.) and Michael Bennet (D-Colo.), held a session on “speaking to those who feel invisible in rural America," according to the schedule. Other sessions were along similar lines: “Listening to those feel unheard” and “Rising America — They feel unheard too.”

Manchin and nine other Senate Democrats are up for reelection next year in states that Trump won. Much of the event appears geared at figuring out how to turn people who supported Trump into Democratic voters in 2018.

Here's how I like to open conversations with Liberal Progressives: "Hi. Go F**K yourself!"

It has taken me years to hone this word-craft. But, I have now mastered the epitome of oratory succinctness. In three simple words (after, "Hi"), I am able to: Express my utter contempt for everything the Liberal Progressives believe, show my disdain at having to engage them in any kind of conversation, and subsequently end the conversation...all with three simple words.

Try it for yourself. You'll thank me later.

They would get offended. You know, he's making fun of black people and such.

It's actually quite comical the democrats need lectures on how to talk to "real people." What they really need to do is find candidates that aren't as fatally flawed as hillary.

In all honesty I think most of the republican politicians could also benefit from the same lecture. Contempt for the average american does not seem to be restricted to only the democratic party.

Former Kentucky Governor Beshear is an asshole. He got put into office by Louisville, and Lexington (the same areas Hitlery took in the election!!). Luckily we have e 2 term limit on the Governor down here. The dems lost big time in the election last year, because people actually got out and voted, just like for the presidential election. We voted in a Conservative Governor who was being fought on everything by the democratic run legislature. WELL, that changed on 11/8 when the house flipped to Republican. All of a sudden Governor Bevin is getting things done.

Beshear's kid is the state AG, and has picked fights with Governor Bevin on everything he has done. AG Beshear is trying to protect his father's legacy... as pathetic as it is/was. AG Beshear will be out in his bid for re-election, there is absolutely no doubt about it!

These liberal morons don't get it!!

Lessons in speaking to Americans...

They really just don't get it. Knowing that they have issues talking to "Us" is an issue on its own. Lessons should not be needed at all. Talking to all of America should be and is very easy.

We don't ask for much. The biggest thing that we want is honesty. Being honest actually comes natural, lying is the hard thing to do.

Next, do not talk to us in a tone that shows you think you are better and smarter than the rest of us. It may surprise you to know, some of us are actually pretty smart!
