And we all paid for it.

Interesting. I don't think you understand how this last inflation cycle happened but that's a different conversation. At least we can agree that one of Harris' major platform talking points is complete garbage.

The last platform I saw talked about Biden’s second term. Have they released one with Harris at the top?

He served 24 years in the Guard. If you're looking for gutless, try Mr. Bones spurs.

It's so strange. Their strategy is to be weird and joyful instead of actual policy. I guess that's fine for a lot of voters.

Do you think Project 2025 is fine for voters?

It’s been awhile since I saw a recap of it. An employment lawyer I follow reviewed a number of employee related items. There were a few items I like, but a lot of it was ridiculous.

This is what bugs the sh!t out me. At least Trump won the primary. For the 3rd straight time, the Dems didn't have a true a primary. We keep hearing about a threat to the democracy, but the Dems haven't had a true primary in 12 years. A few elites makes the decision, and everybody falls in line.

In 2016, didn’t they create “super delegates” to make sure Hillary won? What did they do in 2020?

Ignorant question from a typical MSNBC programmed Democrat lemming. Name me ONE candidate, for any office, that embraces P2025.

Try adjusting to reality and focus on if DEI and CRT is "fine" for voters. Those concepts are wholeheartedly and specifically embraced by nearly every Dem campaign. Literally paramount to all progressive ideology.
