He emphasizes the need for Democrats to &#8220;show&#8221; rather than &#8220;tell&#8221; through impactful advertising that directly illustrates policy impacts on personal lives, like privacy in reproductive rights.<\/p>\n<p>The conversation delves into the importance of pop culture and media presence, suggesting Democrats should leverage platforms like podcasts and UFC events to reach demographics outside the typical liberal media bubble.<\/p>\n<p>Jacobson also discusses the upcoming DNC chair race, highlighting candidates like Ken Martin and Ben Wikler, and the need for a chair who can galvanize the party with fresh, bold messaging strategies.<\/p>\n<p>Read Jacobson's latest column for The Hill, The new DNC chair needs to act more like <a href=\"https:\/\/disruptarian.com\/?s=Trump\">Donald Trump<\/a>,&#8221; here: https:\/\/thehill.com\/opinion\/campaign\/5103438-democrats-average-american-disconnect\/<\/p>\n<p>Support &#8220;Matt Lewis &#038; The News&#8221; at Patreon: https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/mattlewis<\/p>\n<p>Follow Matt Lewis &#038; Cut Through the Noise:<br \/>\nFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MattLewisDC<br \/>\nTwitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/mattklewis<br \/>\nInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mattklewis\/<br \/>\nYouTube: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCVhSMpjOzydlnxm5TDcYn0A<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Who is Matt Lewis? \u2013<br \/>\nMatt K.
