Comment on Several States Refuse To Remove RFK Jr.'s Name From Ballots, Hurting Trump

  Harris criticises those quite regularly, as well as the policies he hasn’t added to his platform which everyone understands to be something critical to a lot of one-issue voters: abortion.

  but when insults are all you have left

  A reminder that Trump pushed insults as his modus operandi from the very start; when people start pushing back in the same style you seem to have an issue.

    When did she do that last?

    I wouldn’t care if there was substance in some of the attacks as well. Like, Trump put in X policy, and that hurt the country in Y way. Honestly I complain more about Trump’s policies than Democrats do, there are multiple things he’s done that have hurt the country although I still think he was a net positive. The only policies I’ve heard Democrats criticize Trump for during this election cycle were tax breaks for the wealthy and moving the embassy to Israel.

    The problem is his policies I have gripes with are all things Democrats supported. The COVID-19 stimulus checks were the biggest thing to me since they’re the primary catalyst for our looming economic crisis IMHO, but the Democrats were all on board with that. Trump also signed off on multiple gun control regulations, including the ban on bump stocks. His worst policies are left wing policies (the guy is a moderate, after all), so it makes sense that Democrats don’t attack him over them.

      At her DNC speech.

      I… what.

      I’ve seen speeches/interviews where they criticised the plan to deport millions of people, criticised as being unworkable and whatnot.
