    Winning Jobs Narrative Project says Dems should 'realize
    progressive Twitter isn't real life'

    A left-wing pollster found that voters disapprove of common left-
    wing policies and talking points on everything from big
    government to abortion, Time reported Monday.

    The poll from the Democratic-aligned Winning Jobs Narrative
    Project, which surveyed 60,000 voters across 17 states, found
    that "making villains of corporations" and embracing "culture
    war topics like abortion" are ineffective strategies for
    Democrats. Liberals would attract more voters, in fact, if they
    sounded like conservatives—talking about "respect for work" and
    placing "government in a supporting rather than primary role."

    Voters prefer Republicans' handling of the economy, which
    remains "the top issue of the coming election," the poll found.
    Americans don't believe President Joe Biden's claims that "this
    has been the fastest recovery in 40 years," instead "looking at
    the worst inflation in the same period and record gas prices."

    Biden has attempted to blame sky-high gas prices on corporate
    greed, saying last month that "oil and gas companies must not
    use this moment as an excuse for profiting." The White House-
    backed "Inflation Reduction Act," meanwhile, ostensibly targets
    millionaires, though the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation
    has found that most new tax revenue will come from "those making
    less than $200,000 a year," the Washington Free Beacon has
    reported.

    The poll is just one of several to find that Americans trust
    Republicans over Democrats on the economy. It also found that
    Democrats' "economic message is especially bad with Latino
    voters." Democrats have hemorrhaged Latino support, with more
    than two-thirds of Hispanics saying the country under Biden is
    on the wrong track, the Free Beacon reported last month.

    While the Winning Jobs Narrative Project says its goal is
    "advancing a progressive agenda," its poll found that "the
    progressive bullhorn … may not be a winner with the voters that
    matter most," Time noted.

    For Democrats to win, the magazine said, they will "need to
    realize progressive Twitter isn't real life."
