Man isn't it just so bizarre that on the actual policies, on the ACTUAL stuff that matters, Americans are overwhelmingly in line with Democratic policies?
Why is it that Trump and the Republicans have no policy prescriptions for ANYTHING? Why dont they have a solution for ANYTHING?
Tell me schizo war room posters - what is the Republican vision for 2021 to 2024? More tax cuts? More shitty trade deals? More tariffs that hurt American businesses? What the fuck does the Republican part actually want to DO, other than oppose Democrats?
Most Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. What will Republicans do about that?
Tens of millions of Americans dont have healthcare. What will Republicans do about that?
Climate change is an existential threat to our country and our world. What will Republicans do about that?
Younger generations are lagging behind in home ownership. What will Republicans do about that?
Income inequality is exploding out of control. The poor are getting poorer and the wealthiest Americans added billions to their net worth during a crisis. What will Republicans do about that?
The costs of education and healthcare are exploding out of control. What will Republicans do about that?
Americas infrastructure is crumbling and needs trillions in investment. What will Republicans do about that?
There's an opioid epidemic ravaging the country. What will Republicans do about that?
We have 2,000,000 people in prison. What will Republicans do about that?
In virtually every realm of policy the Republicans stand for literally nothing. They have no vision to do anything. No prescriptions to help our country.
It's almost like the GOP know that their policies are overwhelmingly unfavorable with the American people, so they constantly have to fight the culture war to distract their voters to act against their own interests.
"We can't raise taxes on the rich, Cardi B just made a provocative new song!!!!"
"We can't address climate change, Biden's an Antifa communist!!!"
"We can't have healthcare reform, black people are wanting their dignity and lives!!!!"
Grow the fuck up and start supporting politicians that will vote for policies that will improve your life. Whether they have an R or a D next to their name.

Among the 4,441 respondents to the poll, 64% strongly or somewhat agreed that “the very rich should contribute an extra share of their total wealth each year to support public programs” - the essence of a wealth tax. Results were similar across gender, race and household income. While support among Democrats was stronger, at 77%, a majority of Republicans, 53%, also agreed with the idea.
