The Message Box - Stuff You Should Consume- Dec. 5, 2022
I hope you will consider becoming a paid subscriber to Message Box. I started this newsletter to give Democratic candidates, operatives, and activists at all levels strategic advice, polling analysis, and message guidance. This project depends entirely on support from readers. Thank you.

“The VIRAL Ads of Herschel Walker & Raphael Warnock,” Crooked Media “Republicans Hate Everything About Trump’s Dinner With Ye and Fuentes Except Trump” by Jamelle Bouie, New York Times
“A Right-Wing Zionist Digests Trump’s Anti-Semite Dinner Party” by Isaac Chotiner, New Yorker Three weeks ago, the Zionist Organization of America gave what it called its highest honor to former President Donald Trump. According to Morton Klein, who runs the Z.O.A., the award commemorated Trump as the “best friend Israel ever had in the White House.” Last week, at Mar-a-Lago, Trump had dinner with Ye—formerly known as Kanye West—and the white supremacist Nick Fuentes, setting off the biggest firestorm over Trump’s bigotry since his response to the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville (which Fuentes attended) … I recently spoke by phone with Klein. During our conversation, which has been edited for length and clarity, we discussed his confusion over Trump’s dinner, why Trump has got close to bigots in recent weeks, and Klein’s questions about Barack Obama’s birthplace. “Black Turnout in Midterms Was One of the Low Points for Democrats” by Nate Cohn, New York Times
