Those are probably going down next year. Maybe even Medicaid (they won't touch Medicare or SSN for now- too many baby boomers reaching retirement age.)

they take over the Senate, House, and White House again. Or any one of those things. They are destroying democracy. If you think that things are made economywise now, just wait until the Republicans get in charge nationally. They have lied about everything for years. Trickle down? BS. No danger in Covid? BS Economy great under Trump? BS No Climate Change disaster imminent? BS No danger for Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Foodstamps (all social programs)? BS.

They lie about everything.

It is all going to torpedo the economy. In our sinking ship of state those below decks die first. The rich think they will get into the inadequate lifeboats. BS.

The average low information voter is only concerned with the economic impact on themselves. They need to see that the mob that sacked the Capitol will be running the show when the Republicans regain any national control. The mob is running many of the Red states now. The economy will collapse and there will be no recourse to law. Anarchy does not favor a growing economy and lower prices folks.

Ms. Porter is the smartest one of the bunch. She needs to impress her Dem colleagues to tie all to the ECONOMY. That is the idol that the typical repub voter worships. Pound, pound, pound the truth that Republican rule means economic disaster. It is our only hope. If the Dems don't keep the House and Senate at least the warning will be out there and enough will see the danger to head off the absolute destruction in 24. God help us all.
