Democrats have decided to try to fool voters by saying they are 'For the People'

Sarah Rumph:
Less than four months before the 2018 midterm elections, House Democrats have come up with a surefire strategy to win over all those working-class voters who were uninspired by Hillary Clinton: a new slogan!

This is a new and exciting change from their last big idea a year ago, which was…[checks notes]…oh yes, also a new slogan.

The 2017 attempt at this sloganeering magic promoted the idea that Democrats were offering voters a “Better Deal,” touting a series of economic reforms that were announced during a press conference with Democratic congressional leadership.

This time around, Democrats seem to have learned from the mockingthey received from their last slogan, and eschewed the press conference in favor of a private meeting with their members — after which they apparently headed straight to chat with a Politico reporter.

The outcome of that meeting, as Politico notes, was to discuss their shiny new slogan: “For the People.”

According to Rep. Cheri Bustos (D-IL), who co-chairs the House Democrats’ messaging arm, this slogan is supposed to help Democrats maintain message discipline while they present a contrast with President Donald Trump and offer voters an alternative agenda.

The new slogan doesn’t seem to be generating waves of optimism among Democrats yet....
...
This looks like an attempt to distract from their real agenda which is "against all things Trump."  It will be hard to convince voters that Democrats are "For the People" at the same time they are trying to take away tax cuts from the people and return to job-killing regulations.
