Do Democrats really not see their party has moved way too far to the left?

We oldsters have vision and experience not yet earned by the younger generations.

Thanks for the $40 trillion in debt. Great vision!

These are problems, not solutions.

Really? These all sound like solutions to me:

• letting Medicare negotiate prescription drug prices.
• protect and fund Social Security and Medicare
• Universal background checks for all gun purchases
• closing loopholes on private gun sales
• raising the federal minimum wage
• wage increases tied to the cost of living
• Increasing federal spending on public school student services,
• free school lunches for low-income students,
• expanding funding for vocational and trade schools
• a pathway to citizenship or legal status for long-term immigrants who have been in the country for years

They think this is defending the constitution:

White House weighed suspending habeas corpus rights for undocumented immigrants: Book

The White House last year weighed suspending habeas corpus rights, which allow for a challenge of someone’s detention, for immigrants in the country illegally, according to a new book from two New …

Well, we were invaded and many of the invaders are still here. Suspend habeas-corpus and git 'em outa here!

Oldsters don't generate much debt. In fact as a group we're pretty sound financially.

So you don’t defend the constitution, you ignore it.

How does this address the poor health of Americans? It just increases the dependence on drugs, many of which have horrible side effects that require yet more drugs.

So much for moving "too far to the left".

The far bigger issue is that Trump and the MAGA Cuck Party are out of their ******* minds....which is why they are going to lose badly in November.

The economy is surging and thats the main issue. Democrats have become socialists and their states are in decline. Further democrats have no message to run on. How about men in womens bathrooms, an open border, violent criminals out of prison, hate speech and riots, 100 genders, massive inflation, nut jobs running for office all over the country, massive fraud in Minn and CA all supported by democrats. Good luck

• raising the federal minimum wage

I agree, raise it to $11/hour, not $15-$20.

• Universal background checks for all gun purchases

Private sales should remain private.

 

[Woodznutz]

• Increasing federal spending on public school student services,

What services?

 

[Woodznutz]

• ,
• free school lunches for low-income students,

Students from low income families already get food assistance through SNAP.

It only addresses the ability of Americans to afford the drugs they need. That is plenty. Aside from raising Medicare costs and discouraging vaccinations, what is the GOP doing to address the poor health of Americans?

• a pathway to citizenship or legal status for long-term immigrants who have been in the country for years

If they are here illegally, they must go no matter how long they've been here. They can then get in line for legal immigration.

TBD

Private sales should remain private.

Unless they endanger the public.

We're setting a better example of personal responsibility regarding health. We are healthier physically and mentally than liberal Democrats.

Thanks for illustrating the gap between the GOP and the American public.

That's a big "unless".

Students from low income families already get food assistance through SNAP.

Is SNAP adequate? Is it threatened by cuts? I have no idea.

Lots of GOPer's among the American public.
