Killing innocent unborn humans is the point

Born voters will decide the issue.

I guess you can say the same for Covid and any terrorists....they are hated and feared by the Democratic Party....so you think they are good.

Murder is hated and feared by the Democratic Party....you think it is good. That explains your 5th Ave. Syndrome.

Democrats LOVED Covid. It allowed them to use all the tools in the State Control tool chest, lock downs, mandatory vaccines, forced compliance. As for Terrorists, they just installed the Taliban as the ruling party in Afghanistan I would hardly call that hatred. Once again you've totally missed the mark.

Fewer Americans say they are living paycheck to paycheck as inflation begins to ease​

Consumers who have been squeezed by higher prices may be experiencing a little relief.

Fewer adults now say they are living paycheck to paycheck, according to a new LendingClub report. As of July, 59% of Americans said they lived paycheck to paycheck, down from 61% in June but still higher than a year ago, when the number of adults who felt stretched too thin was 54%.

Lower-income workers have been the hardest hit by price spikes this year, particularly for food and other staples, since those expenses account for a bigger share of the budget, studies show. Roughly three-quarters of consumers annually earning less than $50,000 and 63% of those earning between $50,000 and $100,000 were living paycheck to paycheck in July, based on LendingClub’s numbers.

OK

Point out a single item that was not Infrastructure
You keep telling the lie

I 95 should be completely modernized now as a Federal Highway. It is not. It has not started yet.

Sounds like Infrastructure

 

[JWBooth]

You are against democracy then. You demand that you are lead by people that think exactly like you do and you would terrorize everyone else. That's called Fascism and nothing ever good has ever come from that, Benito.

Fuck you, asshole....If this is what your "democracy" looks like, I'll take my chances with anarchy....At least I know the score then.

 

[Papageorgio]

It's the economy, it is looking brighter and Democrats are experiencing higher poll numbers.

As long as the economy continues to improve, the Democrats chances improve, even though the Dems have little if anything to do with the uptick in the economy.

Born voters will decide the issue.

Yes

If the voters want abortion they will get it

You just described Mac1958.

Dueling insufferable gasbags.

Republicans never offer solutions

Okay and Democrats offer solutions but never enact them, because they’re liars.

 

[BlueGin]

Our President has an Historic string of Legislative Victories

He will have a lasting legacy in Infrastructure, the environment, education, healthcare

Infrastructure is dem speak for paying off liberal political donors.

 

[BrokeLoser]

We have provided many more detailed reason why Trump was a horrible President

You just ignore them

Actually, you haven’t offered anything quantifiable…you have always said you don’t like Trump because he’s mean.

 

[rightwinger]

Infrastructure is dem speak for paying off liberal political donors.

Really?
States request the funding

Which projects are paying off donors?
You making shit up again?

So, all those folks struggling paycheck to paycheck all the sudden stopped struggling because stuff only went up 8.5% in July?

Not because I want to see Democrats win. Their agenda is destructive, but Republicans need to lose in order to finally get it through their heads that Trump is poison to their party. A month ago they were riding what looked like was going to be a historical red wave. Now, it's more of a puddle, if even that. The House will still likely flip due to redistricting, but by a much smaller margin. The Senate is looking completely out of reach now barring some tidal event back in their favor. Their reversed fortune is likely due to two elements: the Dobbs ruling and Trump's influence over the Senate primaries.

The Dobbs ruling is what it is. GOP voters have been open and honest about wanting Roe overturned for decades. However, I don't think anyone actually expected it to happen, including the GOP leadership, which is why it was such a shock and awe event. Even with Dobbs, though, the Republicans should still be riding a strong election wave, but they aren't. Trump's picks have been toxic to the electorate. Pennsylvania should have been a relatively easy hold, but Trump endorsed the most incompetent Republican candidate in the race and his campaign is a trainwreck. It's so bad he is likely going to lose to a stroke victim who looks and dresses like Shrek. Mastriano, Trump's handpicked gubernatorial candidate in the state who parroted The Big Lie and was at the Capitol Hill riot on January 6th, has been trailing his opponent in every poll. Georgia should have been the easiest pickup for the GOP, but Trumpy Herschel Walker can't form a coherent thought, makes things up out of thin air, and so far refuses to debate his opponent. In Arizona, MAGA Blake Masters is attempting to run away from his political record on abortion, countering his support for a federal personhood law, and it's blowing up in his face. GOP PACs have already started pulling money out of that race. Wisconsin is now also in jeopardy given Ron Johnson's admittance he was part of the fake Electors scheme. Even states like Ohio, North Carolina, and Florida are showing to be more competitive than expected, but I suspect the Republicans will retain those seats in the end. Furthermore, this national toxicity has the potential to destroy several gubernatorial races. Kari Lake in Arizona is as tactless and crass as Trump and is losing her race, which would be a net loss for the GOP. Other competitive races like New Mexico, Wisconsin, and Maine, to name a few are being stunted by the overall environment.

Despite Biden's dismal approval ratings, poor economic climate, and incredibly radical administration, the Republicans look to be snatching defeat from the jaws of victory and that's exactly what needs to happen. After these midterms are over the MAGA faithful need a strong wakeup call that blindly following their leader's guidance is destructive and toxic to their party and their agenda. If they emerge from these elections with anything other than a sound and disappointing defeat it may very well carry them into 2024 with Trump as their nominee and that will be the final nail in the coffin. According to polls, over half of Republicans still want Trump to be their nominee in 2024 and make another run at it and this is dangerous because he will get destroyed. Biden will be one and done, regardless of what he says. The party will never let him be renominated, so 2024 should be a strong presidential year for the GOP following Biden and the Democrats really have no strong bench to speak of. Sanders will be too old. Warren is an unlikable shrew. Harris is an imbecile and Buttigieg is milquetoast. They do have one formidable candidate, however, and that is Gavin Newsom. He's young (relatively speaking), attractive, and charismatic and if I were to make a bet today on who the Dem nominee will be it's him. He's the American version of Justin Trudeau and that's what's so scary about his prospects. The Republicans need someone who can make the strong case that Newsom's radical California values are a poor fit for the country and that case won't be made by Trump. His attitude, his antics, and constant negative press will overshadow all of these things and usher Newsom into the White House in a landslide and we'll pay for it dearly.

So yes, I want the Republicans to lose bigly. The Trump faithful will still be there, of course. Nothing will convince them they are lambs to the slaughter, but enough of the rank and file may finally realize Trump is destructive and relegate the remaining hold outs to the extreme wing of their party and purge them from having future significant influence. It needs to happen or the country is doomed in 2024.

I think you will be very surprised.
