It’s probably cliched at this point to quote the Joker from Dark Knight, but he has a point when he says “people are as good as the world allows them to be.” People who are well fed, have housing, have jobs, can afford their health care, and so on can then afford to care about things that make no difference to their everyday lives such as other peoples access to abortions, the sexual orientation of children, wars in foreign countries, or the ultimate fate of polar bears. Democrats spend too much time in rooms filled with journalists, college professors, and the idle rich people who drive most of their agenda. When real concerns come up against their fake outrage, they usually lose elections.

Only 18% claim that inflation and cost of living is the most important problem today? Was the poll taken on Martha’s Vineyard?
I expect the economy answer and the cost of living answer can be combined – so it’s 44%. But, echoing your point, in these times I would have expected the combined answer for these to be well above 60%.

The first mistake the present government had done was taking the passport of Mr. Trump, who was the president for a term. You can’t insult the former President by taking his passport. It projects wrongly of the post of President-seat and position.
Everyday the news channels have only two issues to discuss – Ukraine War and Jan 6 committee hearings.
The issue of Abortion should be discussed in proper perspective. The abortion is not an issue of freedom. If the cause of abortion is rape, it is understandable. The rapists should be punished and family value system should be tightened. The loose family moral values have destroyed the families, society and USA.
Being Conservative is not barbaric. Freedom is not a licence to do anything. The Gun violence cannot continue in the name of freedom. The abortion cannot continue in the name of freedom. We should think of building our families, building character, building values. In the name of freedom you cannot rubbish conservative values.
If ‘loose family morals’ are the cause of all this pain, how come the very tight family morals of, say, Iran do not lead to a wonderful society? Or maybe the strict family morals of 1930s Germany – etc etc.
“Republicans, the more trusted party when it comes to economics…”
It’s true that they are widely seen that way – but depth research repeated over 7 decades has consistently found it to be…. wrong. But we live in the post-truth era, so whatever.
It’s also true that, whilst Clinton said on winning elections, ‘it’s the economy stupid’, this current recession has little-to-nothing to do with Democrats or Biden. Meanwhile Trump and his GOP supporters are victims of plots and outrageous persecution, and lack the means to fight back, because the deep state – the courts, military, FBI, CIA, NSA, police, civil servants, and politicians (who apparently must be dominated by democrats, even though they aren’t ) ……Again, it’s a post-truth society; the elites are mind-controlling scum; helped by a monolithic MSM (tho little ‘Davids’ such as Fox and the Daily Mail valliantly sling their stones), and financed by foreign financial cabals who hate our freedom, so…. whatever.

Hitler was a vegetarian
Hence vegetarianism caused the Holocaust.
Hitler was a human being. Therefore?
