The way I see it is this: The GOP is tone deaf in 50-65% of the country. By that I mean, they have literally zero idea what the situation on the ground is; no idea how much money people make, what their daily struggles are, etc. This is evidenced by the tax cuts for corporations and the assault on the ACA. The DNC is tone “hard of hearing” in 80% of the country. By that I mean they have some idea what the situation on the ground is
We have no idea what people make or what their struggles are? Then how do you explain Commie Care and the mandate that said you must buy health insurance, because we (the government) figured out what you can afford. Then of course you have Piglosi who said the thousand or so bucks workers got form bonuses and raises were merely crumbs?
Except for most of the nation...it has been crumbs
A thousand bucks or so my not be life changing for many Americans, but certainly not crumbs unless you are a wealthy elitist like Piglosi. A thousand bucks is a good chunk of change for a down payment on a car, or perhaps an extra mortgage payment or two. A big help if your daughter needs books for college. Anything.
Democrats are not in touch with the people on the ground level. That's why Trump was elected.
You’re dreaming…
It hasn’t been a thousand bucks…
"Julia Ketchum, a secretary at a public high school in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, said she was pleasantly surprised her pay went up $1.50 a week. She didn't think her pay would go up at all, let alone this soon. That adds up to $78 a year, which she said will more than cover her Costco membership for the year.”
Workers celebrate more money in paychecks after tax cuts
The Democrats haven’t the faintest idea how to craft legislation and programs that will positively affect those on the ground.
