This isn’t Bidenomics. It never was. This is bigger than Joe Biden, and quite frankly, he never deserved naming rights in the first place. (Half the time, he doesn't even know where his pants are.) This is a problem that’s exclusive to Democrats: Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, et al. It’s a partywide phenomenon.
So call it Demonomics.
And pin it to ALL the Democrats.
Demonomics is the policy of announcing plans to shut down oil companies over the next few years, while also demanding they make massive new investments in production, infrastructure, and capacity. It’s spending $1.9 trillion to stimulate the economy, mailing everyone free money, and then going “Surprised Pikachu” when inflation explodes.
It’s blaming Putin for everything and yourself for nothing.
It’s the policy of making our country dependent (again) on oil imports from unstable, anti-American regions, and then being baffled when the Oil Oligarchs maximize profits, price-gouge consumers, and weaponize their petro-Rubles. Demonomics is putting who’s-woke ahead of who’s-going-broke — and placing Green Peace ahead of greenbacks.
There’s no more pop culture in 2024. Pop culture is dead. Today it’s all cult-culture: Different niche groups in separate (but unequal) echo-chambers. Some of these groups still consume newspapers and cable news. Others are 100 percent online. And there are increasingly bizarre dividing lines: TERF versus trans. Free Speech versus safe spaces. Woke versus DGAF. Maskers versus anti-vaxxers. K-Pop/Swifties/Beliebers versus… music that doesn’t suck.
Each group has its own tastemakers, taletellers and gatekeepers.
Because our modern culture is hopelessly splintered, your marketing message cannot be unduly complex. Otherwise, it’ll never penetrate your target-audience’s cult-culture cocoon. The more your message must be explained, the more cost-prohibitive it is to disseminate. An 18-piece Contract with America, circa 1994, is too unwieldy for voters in 2024.
A successful economic message in 2024 must be direct. The shorter the better. Ideally, the tale you tell will quickly explain the problem — and then offer the perfect solution. And if the message is transferable to ALL Democrats, you can nationalize the election, so it’s not just about one person.
So what’s the problem? Demonomics. What’s the solution: Voting Republican.
(The fact that Demonomics sounds “demonic” shouldn’t be lost on you either. It makes it that much better for PR purposes.)
Be direct: call it Demonomics. Tell the tale.
And pin the tale on the donkey(s).
