Could Democrats win the next election with a simple slogan?

I think it is possible.

They need to say something purely unoffensive but containing a truth, without mentioning names or personalities.

It needs to be repetitive and rather short.

Over a period of time, people will weigh the words as being from a totally non-partisan position.

That is a way to open their minds.

It should be a very simple slogan.

2. If you could reason with tRumpers, they wouldn't be tRumpers.....

A simple slogan, no matter how compelling, isn't going to penetrate the cement-heads who still worship the Slobfather. If they haven't divorced themselves from him by now, they will go to their graves kissing his little scrotum--sooner, I hope, than later......

7. No - That should be Support Russia, vote Republican.

14. That is on the right track...

In my opinion, the slogan that will gain the most traction with repetitiveness is: Republicans Cannot Defend Our Country Or Our Constitution

Nothing more needs to be said.

There is no mention of Donald Trump.

Because deep down, America knows it is not safe in the hands of Republicans. No names or personalities need to be mentioned. Most Americans know what happened on January 6th and before. If this slogan is stated over and over, it is non-partisan enough to seep thru the wall that now surrounds the two political Parties.

Can't think of any slogan to put that out of mind

10. I always thought Hillary Clinton's slogan was literally the stupidest ever

"I'm with her"--so unbelievably tone deaf! A campaign shouldn't be about we can do for a politician, it should be about what they plan to do for us.

So it's not catchy, but "We're on your side" or something to that effect might point out the difference between the Party of No and the party that's trying to restore the child care tax credit and BBB and deal with the climate crisis and do things that will actually benefit us.

11. It's unusual times. Usual slogans will not work.

It should never mention Trump's name. It has to tell the truth without attacking any individual. By repetition, it will enter into the minds of whomever hears it. They should understand the importance of its message.

It should be a simple slogan with a simple truth.

Of course Democrats could win with a simple slogan. Look at their voting base. Look at DU.

[ExGeeEye]

Ideas for our side:

"It's the economy, stupid" directly copied from the 1992 Clinton campaign/i]

and

A reshoot of the "Democrats are out of gas" ad from 1980 with ersatz Tip-n-Jimmy, starring Joe-n-Nan.

How about "Make America Great Again!"   

[DLR Pyro]

How about "Let's go Brandon!"

It's snappy and already very popular

Correct, and DU's discussion of whether they can win on slogans sounds like a quiet admission that they know their party doesn't deserve to win.

2 bags of groceries cost $200, what are you buying, a couple cartons of smokes and two gallons of gin?

[SVPete]

Howzabout Brandon, Pelosiroo, and Chuckles do this:

End Federal vax and mask mandates, mandate the full re-opening of schools and universities, and withhold Federal $$ from states, local governments, schools & universities, and companies with Federal contracts if they don't also end their mandates and closings?

They could say: We freed the slaves!

   Yeah, not happening here or in any parallel or perpendicular universe.

Science=men can be women, if they just think they are.
Democracy=illegals can vote.
Kindness=people who disagree with Ds are deplorables--and worse.

Yeah, go for it. The ads practically write themselves.

[USA4ME]

Dems seemed to already have embraced the slogan “One People - One Country - One Leader”. They should just roll with it.

If you are Nance from the great white North, then yes

[67 Rover]

How about "If you don't vote for Joe you ain't a democrat or dead"

Possibly.

Dog knows there are enough stupid people out there that are susceptible to suggestion.

I suspect however, that rather that bet their fortunes on their ability to fool all of the people some of the time, the Dim'Rats will instead turn their reliance to the tried and true Dominion Voting Tabulators of Plenty.

Feel like a useless eater yet, DUmbasses???

Vegan organic free trade tofu gets hit by inflation and supply chain issues too, you know.

DUmbass kentuck is a political genius and is in tune with Americans. I'd like to help in this DUmbassery and kindly lend my services.

No Meat, Vote democrat!

Empty Shelves, Vote democrat!

[Kc25]

Vote Early, Vote Often, and make sure your dead relatives vote at least twice!

But that has been their mantra for sometime.

Excellent point.  Was dating a vegan a few years back and the grocery bills were rather outrageous.

There's a reason organic/health haven Whole Foods is nicknamed "Whole Paycheck".
