That makes sense. But those average voters not named Extremist also are seeing more with each passing day, with Woke! and other culture war shenanigans, that the GOP is desperate for something, anything, to cling to in the name of tribal politics and tearing down the opposition more than actually giving us a better plan for success. Their glass is half-empty for all to see. At some point people become exhausted with constant negativity. If the Democrats stay on both task and message, I like their chances over time, especially as a younger generation, with a different outlook on politics, comes to the fore. If the GOP insists on being the rain, the Democrats should keep being the parade.

I agree. If I was the Dems, I'd be highlighting the fact that Republicans have no real solutions.

Their solution on Guns - more guns.

Their solution on Drugs - invade Mexico.

Their solution on Education - ban books.

Their solution on Covid - get sick.

Their solution on the Economy - Tax cuts for the billionaires.

Their solution on Crime - Show trials and summary executions.

Their solution for International Aggression - Turtle.

You have the order inverted on the 6th Republican solution: It's "execution" then "trial."

Brilliant. Too big for a bumper sticker but fits on billboards.

You forgot that the solution to every problem is seeing Hunter Biden's genitals.

Let's hope someone from the DNC, or in office at the Capitol or WH reads comments here. You put that together wonderfully!

They have actually spent 75 years, even when they included actual legislators and statesmen instead of just performative clowns, trying to undo the New Deal and

"take back" all the prosperity and resources from the middle and lower classes to themselves. It is all they have done in my lifetime! Republicans take over and do harm to most of us. Dems take over and repair the harm. Rinse. Repeat. Maddening. Now of course Republicans have given up the pretense of not doing harm.

Can't argue with that, either!
