  1. The lions share of spending under Trump was due to the COVID. Agree or disagree?
  2. What do you mean by the 1% not paying any taxes?
  3. You are crying about Trump’s debt which was driven by the COVID pandemic, then you give a free pass to Obama and Biden.
  4. Dude, you are the fact free fringe.
  5. Did you worry about the 8 trillion dollars in debt under Obama? Are you worried about the additional debt under Joe BIden. The US is looking at a 1.7 trillion dollar defect in FY2024. What do you mean by 1% not paying any taxes at all?
  6. You lefties are the real fascists.
  7. Let’s see you bring some facts to the table.
  8. CA has one of the worst housing shortages. Where is Harris from?
  9. You have no answer, you should stop watching CNN and MSNBC.
  10. Where is the housing shortage the worst in the USA?
  11. Did you look at the chart? Harris wants another housing bubble.
  12. Maybe Harris can create another housing bubble along with her bread lines. https://www.statista.com/statistics/184842/single-family-house-starts-in-the-united-states-since-2000/
  13. How does raising taxes on the wealthy make the better? The middle and working class don’t pay squat in taxes outside of the hidden tax of JoeFlation.
  14. This largest issue is NIMBA. How will she deal with that at the state and local levels?
  15. 1) don’t eat junk. 2) extercise
  16. Rare cut coming? Really? The current rate is higher than normal to deal with JoeFlation.
  17. Let’s go through these. Although generally milder than the typical postwar recession, the 1990-91 downturn was exacerbated by several external factors such as the Persian Gulf crisis, the savings and loan col- lapse, and continued job cutbacks as a result of lower defense spending The seeds of the 2008 housing bust were set in the 90’s. Most of this started under Bill Clinton. The Clinton economy started sour at the end of the term as the dot com boom started to bust. Obama was lucky with the historic interest rates. Obama also added a pile of debt. Biden had two quarters of negative GDP growth, and did notice the employment numbers were just revised down?
  18. Biden was forced out. Harris was selected by the party elders.
  19. Cite and example and the reasons.
  20. The final crack in the traditional convention process came eight years later at the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago. Minnesota Sen. Eugene McCarthy, who won the most primary votes, lost to fellow Minnesota Sen. Hubert Humphrey in the delegate count. Humphrey had not run as an announced candidate in the 17 primaries, and only 38 percent of convention delegates were chosen by voters in primaries. (Republicans picked just 34 percent of delegates in primaries.) Both parties soon initiated reforms to ensure that more voters had a direct role in choosing political nominees. In 1976, Democrats selected 73 percent of convention delegates in primaries, while Republicans chose 68 percent. In 1980, the name “Super Tuesday” was used to describe the final Tuesday of the primary season in June, when a key group of states that included California and New Jersey cast votes. https://constitutioncenter.org/blog/a-brief-history-of-presidential-primaries The selection of Harris is a step backwards in the democratic process.
  21. Before 1972, political conventions were convened to select the candidates. Some people felt that a small group of people choosing a candidate was undemocratic. Thus, after 1972, the primaries became the means of candidate selection. Neither the primaries nor the convention was used to select Harris.
  22. What is the point of the convention? The party elders selected Harris.
  23. Harris’s economic views are horrible. Progressives are like a plague of locusts destroying everything in their path.
  24. If Joe Biden saved the economy, why does Harris want price control?
