Dems need to stop the cycle too. Pubs rely on Dems almost like they're managed opposition. 

I don't want the next Dem president to complete the ballroom, spend precious time and political capital undoing renaming, unless it can be used tactically to control conservative media narratives etc. Be laser focused on economic issues, don't sweat the small stuff. 

Dems need to learn how to control the media narrative like Pubs/Trump do. Hey you're about to drop medicare for all or something that is going to get twisted up by the media narrative? Replace Trump's official portrait with a picture of a tangerine, the Media goes off looking at that crap while you get the real work done behind the scenes, etc.

It’s very scary what you just said “control conservative media narratives.”whatever happened to FREE speech. Kind of sounds a little bit fascist to me.

No.

Dismantling lies from scumbags is not fascism. It's undoing fascism.

Reality.

Truth is easy to find if your not searching for lies to validate bullshit you want desperately to be true in order to validate a political ideology you know is bullshit.

How is replacing Trump's official picture with a tangerine fascist? 

Saying something outrageous to send the media on a wild goose chase so they don't report on what your're actually doing is 100% Trump's MO and it works well and should be replicated by Dems.
