Roy Cooper (D) of North Carolina, who will take the helm of the Democratic Governors Association (DGA) on Saturday, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/dems-desperate-to-ditch-trump-583809b6-7e28-401c-8482-92e0e355f343.html\">warned<\/a> that Democrats must not embody what&nbsp;is known as&nbsp;\u201cTrump derangement syndrome.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just don\u2019t think [Trump] needs to be the central focus,\u201d Cooper admitted to those present at the DGA annual winter meeting.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWhat you can do is continue to focus on your issues and [decide] if it\u2019s worth reminding people how this candidate got elected, and what\u2019s coming,\u201d he added. \u201cBecause our democracy is really at stake now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As the chairman of the DGA, Cooper is in charge of defeating Republicans in 36 gubernatorial races across the nation. And with Trump endorsing ten candidates in 20 of the seats Republicans are defending, it is important Democrats strike the right tone to avoid&nbsp;another&nbsp;November drubbing.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats changing their focus to issues impacting Americans remains to be seen. But polling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/12\/10\/cnbc-poll-inflation-surpasses-coronavirus-as-number-one-national-concern\/\">indicates<\/a> inflation, the coronavirus, crime, and immigration are voters\u2019 top concerns.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, the&nbsp;Labor Department announced inflation&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/economy\/2021\/12\/10\/fastest-inflation-in-40-years-as-consumer-prices-soar-6-8-percent\/\">reached<\/a>&nbsp;a 40-year high in November. The White House ignored the severity of inflation leading up to the Friday report as \u201ctransitory,\u201d suggesting the price increases on household items, energy, and food would quickly go away. Friday\u2019s report indicated inflation is only becoming worse, however.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"ABC Reports On Bidenflation As Prices For Food, Housing, Gas, And Car Prices Surge\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KUB6rldljmY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p>The coronavirus is also a top concern for voters.
