But how? Democrats have been trying to get the media to discuss what they want when they want for like 4 decades now. Mainstream media has decided it’s on the side of business and Dems are bad for that (I disagree, but then I’m not a CEO, just someone who can read a chart), so how do you get them talking about the benefits of (D) actions instead of just the drawbacks they want to highllight in the 3 minute segment they only agreed to just to show how unrealistic or expensive or whatever they think those actions are?
But Biden has done a bunch of shit worth talking about - the media just doesn’t care because it isn’t controversial. A good example is the lead pipe refurbishing fund - it’ll be in the news cycle for an hour or two and then all the focus will shift back to the Trump trial.

It’s pretty easy. Add a rider to your bill to provide free American flags for orphans. Or a cookie for every child. Something dumb to grab attention.
Then talk about the actual bill when people ask you about it.

That’s not a problem with Biden. It’s a problem with the apathetic audience.
