C&P from someone else’s summary:
xxxxxxxx
What is the strategic logic behind Democratic governors and senators threatening to cause havoc at Republican officials’ town halls, or to ignite “mass protests” and “disruptions,” so that “Republicans cannot know a moment of peace”?
Does anyone believe that yet a third impeachment of Trump will ensure a Democratic midterm victory?
Or is the correct left-wing playbook to champion a motley array of assassins, spousal abusers, and gang members? Is it wiser then to either laud or ignore attacks on Tesla dealers, owners, and chargers, or wink and nod at blatantly anti-Semitic demonstrations and protests?
Is there anything taboo for the hysterical left?
Yes—it cannot offer the country a simple “Democratic Contract for America”—listing its own solutions to the nation’s existential crises.
There is not a single Democratic blueprint of how to address a $2 trillion budget deficit, $3 billion in daily interest payments, $37 trillion of national debt, or a $1.2 trillion annual trade deficit.
There is no post-Biden corrective agenda to deal with his legacy of 12 million recent illegal aliens, added to the existing 20 million current unlawful immigrants.
Not a single Democratic senator, representative, or party official has put forth any plan to end the Biden-era conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine.
Nor will they even discuss the challenge of biological males wrecking women’s sporting events, institutionalized campus anti-Semitism, or unlawful race-based chauvinism.
On all these matters, the Democrats and their leftist supporters have offered no counter-proposals, no alternate agendas, and no unique solutions to the nation’s problems—other than boring, profanity-ridden venom and tired performance-art buffoonery.
Reliance on warped polls, untrustworthy and biased reporting, and media sensationalism will not help such poverty of thought and character.
Obscene, hysterical, and clueless is no way to appeal to Americans, Democrats.

Here’s your chance, TDSers. Watcha got?

Instead of 'getting it' their echo chamber has told everyone to double/triple down.
Can anyone name anything the Democrats are for that's not related to victimhood and getting freebies from the gubment?

Sorry, what was the Republican blueprint for dealing with $37 trillion of debt?

Was it DOGE? How's that working out? Less than $100B 4 months in, and will ultimately cost substantially more than it saves, while absolutely upending critical functions of the government? Cool.

The global market for purchasing US government debt (I.e., T-Bills and T-Bonds) had, in (I think it was) Goldman Sachs’ opinion, rewarded America hen they saw the Q1 budget report card.
As expected, the majority of the budget report card looked terrible. However, despite the overall ‘bad’ report card, the sales of T-Bonds during that day’s federal auction showed that T-Bond prices started out in the negative, but then rallied after the ‘bad’ report card came out. In other words, that day’s auction of T-Bonds ended up as successful; the new debt was sold at lower interest rates than had been anticipated. (America badly needs for the interest rate payable on newly issued T-Binds to be as low as possible).
A financial analyst company (and again, I think it was Goldman) cited the summary line item in the ‘bad’ report card that showed a surprising ~$53B in unexpected cost cuts; these cost cuts were recognized by global federal debt buyers as being attributed to DOGE.
Although you and Imboth recognize that $ 53B is little more than spitting in the ocean, Goldman Sachs opined that the global market saw the DOGE influenced line item as evidence that the US government is committed to serious, big cuts in government spending. Put another way, it showed that American, for the first time in forever, is sincere in getting our financial house in order.
That is why DOGE, despite ceaseless specious efforts by biased judges, RINOs and Democrat politicians, federal agencies, crooked NGOs, and wasteful grifting universities (such as Harvard) to stop DOGE.
DOGE is up against a mountain of special interests who have zukked America’s blood for decades. There will not be any immediately massive accomplishment of DOGE driven cost savings. D3spite the resistance, corrupt special interests are being exposed and some cost cuts are underway.

Harvard used to be good.
They have devolved into a de facto for-profit business that indoctrinates their students instead of teaching them the foundations of becoming wise. Otherwise known as critical thinking skills and a mindset of rational reasoning.
The federal government should stop funding Harvard. Harvard wants to keep the government out of their business. I couldn’t agree more. Quit funding Harvard and let them ‘survive’ off of investment earnings from their ~ $53B endowment.

One of the Dems better ideas is to not have a pointless trade war with Canada, or to quadruple our previous level of tariffs around the world for no reason other than because "I love tariffs", driving up costs for consumers and ultimately costing Americans jobs.
Another one of their better ideas is to not jail legal immigrants simply because they've exercised political speech rights that we disagree with.
Another one of their better ideas is to obey the SCOTUS order to facilitate the return of Garcia from a prison he should never have been deported to.
Democrats have many better ideas. Countless. And in fact, there are some Republicans who have better ideas than what is coming from MAGA. But they're afraid to speak up, because the fascist regime in the White House will attack them.
If you don't like Democrats, that's fine. And I don't agree with everything they say and do. But they do have "better ideas" than what we're seeing from MAGA.

You gas lighted me with your Dems offered this & that but that last one of: Dems have Better IDEAS than we are seeing from MAGA..Broke the Bank!
Com’on TiGer..you can’t really think that Dems have any real ideas Or rational leaders at this time to implement anything helpful at this moment !
Seems to most that Dems are gonna be hard pressed to win another Presidency in next 1 or maybe 2 cycles..but yet in past they always come to life in mid-terms and take control again.
I have no real problems with the true ole Donkey party but this past group were so radical that Marxist’s & Communists were alarmed! LOL~
Oh, KaMaLa for Prez, please!!

That's rich coming from the party which won't even allow its members to reject men in women's sports/locker rooms/prisons etc because the Marxists in charge would immediately excommunicate them out of their cushy elected positions. And it's not just that issue, it's pretty much any of the kooky lefts tent pole issues. They've already started a whisper campaign against Fetterman for having the audacity to stand up for Israel against murdering terrorists who seek it's extermination.
So spare us your crocodile tears about the mean old right and it's lack of diversity of opinion when the Pub party on it's absolute best day is incapable of marching in lockstep like the left does 365 days a year.
