I don’t know if blackmailing other countries into doing what you want by threatening them with high tariffs is a sustainable plan for economic growth.

I’m talking about voters. And yes, there is such a thing as profanity and it turns some people off.

Some Democrats get upset when they hear this, but that kind of language doesn’t help win over the voters you need to win.

Take it anyway you want, I don't understand how you can lose the way Kamala Harris lost and then be out a few months later with a book about it. I wouldn't want to even talk about it, let alone write a whole book about how I failed.

But the food stamp and health care cuts are part of a bigger GOP message where the demonize the poor to excite their voters. The lies are endless.

Show them not only the pain but how the GOP in it's callousness and lack of empathy sees it as part of their winning message.

The cuts aren't just ways to funnel money to the rich. They're part of the message the GOP sees as a winner.

Multiple reasons. One is the demonization of the poor, immigrant, and the LGBTQ community, which they see as a winning message.

These cuts serve more than one purpose. They hurt the poor at the expense of the rich -- of course. But they're also part of a message the GOP thinks helps it win elections.

It's not just about screwing the poor to help the rich, although that's a big part of it. This is also what the GOP sees as a winning message.

Republicans over the years have presented a master class in demonizing the poor and others who can't fight back. Let's call them out on it and look at their hypocrisy and lies.
It's not just about cuts. It's about power.
