August 22, 2025: Was it something Dems said?

In their ongoing effort to reorganize and define the party, Democrats have gotten some new guidance on how to win over voters. And it’s not so much about what they should do, but what they shouldn’t. In a new memo shared exclusively with Playbook, the center-left Democratic think tank Third Way reveals the party should distance itself from a few dozen words and phrases that may alienate potential voters. Could terms such as “microaggression,” “privilege” and “triggering” in fact be turning off potential Democratic voters? Playbook’s Adam Wren and White House reporter Megan Messerly unpack that and more.

August 21, 2025: Vance’s big, beautiful sales job

President Donald Trump’s “One Big, Beautiful Bill” Act is in for one big, beautiful rebranding effort. Today in Georgia, VP JD Vance will seek to reframe the Republican megalaw as primarily  “working families tax cuts.” In part, that’s a reaction to weak poll numbers for Trump’s signature legislative accomplishment heading into the midterms. But the new approach is also a reflection of a divide within the GOP over whether congressional Republicans have been sufficiently proactive in promoting the policy to voters. Playbook’s Adam Wren and Politico White House reporter Irie Sentner break down what to watch.

August 20, 2025: How Gavin Newsom took over your X feed

With a smashmouth, all-caps-laden and meme-filled X account, California Gov. Gavin Newsom is holding a mirror up to MAGA — and MAGA doesn’t like what it’s seeing. For a decade, President Donald Trump has blazed trails online. And now, Newsom is finding that by replicating Trump’s posts — to the point of outright parody and trolling — he’s effectively gamed social media algorithms and colonized X’s “for you” tab. Is this a new era for political communication in America? And is the Michelle Obama “when they go low, we go high” era effectively dead and buried? Playbook’s Adam Wren and Dasha Burns sort through the AI-generated slop and get some answers.
