Sounds promising IMO

Meet the Democrat Who Thinks He Can Take Down Josh Hawley

Missouri is, decidedly, a red state.

It’s been years since the Show-Me state elected a Democrat statewide. And when Sen. Josh Hawley (R) is up for re-election in 2024, likely boosted by the headwinds of a presidential cycle, most would figure he’ll be in fine shape.

But Lucas Kunce—a Democrat, marine veteran, and attorney—has a different perspective. And he’s trying to get others to join in.

Like a number of Democrats before him, Kunce is running as an underdog candidate, trying to flip a red-state seat blue. He thinks a grassroots, populist approach can revitalize the Democratic Party in Missouri, betting his working-class background will connect with voters who’ve felt disenchanted by politicians.

Lucas Kunce thinks Josh Hawley is uniquely vulnerable in the increasingly red state of Missouri. But he’ll have to convince more than himself to actually get the job done.

Josh Hawley Needs to Learn a Thing or Two About ‘Manhood’​

By Jake Auchincloss / Lucas Kunce

In America today, there is no man more obsessed with “manhood” than Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO).

And while he’s never been to war, he spends most of his waking hours cosplaying on the battlefields of a culture war. This includes accusing men like us, two Marine veterans, of wanting to redefine things “like courage, and independence, and assertiveness—as a danger to society.”

Thankfully for those of us who have been poorly instructed, Josh’s book, Manhood, can show us the light. For just $29.99 we can learn the path to achieving Hawley-level masculinity by recreating ourselves in his own image.

While we haven’t read the book, we certainly hope there’s a chapter on the manliness of skittering away from mobs you’ve incited outside the U.S. Capitol.

But however cringe-worthy Hawley’s solutions might be, the problem is real. The data is clear: Working-class men in America are disconnected from the economy, and it hurts.

Real family values are about providing a healthy alternative to the toxic masculinity Hawley is offering. The disconnect between men and the economy or society isn’t happening because men are failing to achieve some weird idea of what it means to be a man. The core of this crisis is the fact that men without a college degree have seen their relative earnings fall by 30 percent since 1980.

Why? Because Josh Hawley and others like him have blocked advancements for working class Americans at every turn.

The Missouri senator’s got a new book about all things “manly,” but he’s no friend of working-class American males.

I understand what you're saying. Here in Florida, many good people, running for office, consistently are turned down, because Republicans would
rather eat out of a garbage can than visit a Democratic, comfortable, clean dining place.
