Correction: The GOP is choosing decline.

Dems need to remind GOP regularly that this genie doesn’t go back into the bottle when a Democrat is elected.

Trump has trashed everything that was paid for by American taxpayers. When it comes time to repair and rebuild, that funding had better come from billionaires.

Studies repeatedly show that most people age out of "hardcore" crime by their late 30s and 40s. And nobody is "born to be" a criminal. Even Trump, who is a hardcore criminal who has not aged out of his illicit behavoir, was not born like this. I blame his parents.

That is the one thing the GOP has been consistent about since Reagan - painting Dems as elitist “takers” who are not from “real American”. Dems always resort to defense. They need to go on offense and hard.

It’s the success that bothers them. They don’t mind success in singing, acting, sports, etc, bc it’s entertainment. It’s when they saw POC as pilots, doctors, lawyers, univ prez, & US prez they had to label them DEI pejoratively. They can’t tolerate a world in which there is no white privilege.
