Jim Messina to Dems: ‘Stop Worrying About 10% of Our Party that Is Super Great on Twitter and Sucks at Knocking on Doors’

EXCERPT:

MESSINA: “Look, I'm going to get barbecued on Twitter for this and I don't care one bit. The fact is, Democrats got to lean into this issue and actually have a plan and not deny that there's an issue. Yes, details do matter sometimes. Yes, the crime rate in blue states is less than red states and we got to say that to the -- to the world, and we don't, and it drives me absolutely insane. On the other hand, these voters don't feel safe. And unless we have a plan and go straight at it and stop worrying about 10 percent of our party that is super great on Twitter, and sucks at knocking on doors -- (Laughter) -- than we should just absolutely --" (Laughter)
JORDAN: "That was a good --" [crosstalk]
MESSINA: "Right. And I'm going to get killed for that one too and I don't care. Like this is what we have to do. And we got to stop listening to a very small minority of our party. We had this fight in 2020. Joe Biden won it. And so Democrats just got to remember that and steer into it and stop worrying about this other BS."
