    1. @Hunter convictions? If you count individual charges, 2022 is possible if you consider all seditious Reds, Red.

  1. When DeSantis said “The freedom from having oppressive ideologies imposed upon you without your consent” he clearly had never looked in a mirror.

  2. What if instead of wasting $50 million on commercials about crime, the two parties actually did something about it? Is that too much to ask for?

    1. We need a law that takes money out of politics. If campaigns can’t manage their own finances and win why would we expect them to to be able to manage their governmental budgets once in office?

  3. OK AS LONG IF DONNIE IS INVOLVED WITH THE REPUBLICANS IT WILL BE HARD TO WIN DONNIE IS BAD NEWS FOR ARE PARTY

  4. The same old tactics for the same old reasons and ultimately, the same old results. This statement is true for both republicans and democrats.

  5. The USA Inflation rate is bad. But the dollar is strong against other currencies. What does this mean? It means that Inflation is worse in other parts of the world. It means that inflation is a global problem. It means that we are currently doing a better job at fighting inflation than most of the developed world. It means that world inflation is driving USA inflation.

  6. As to Mandela Barnes, this is on us Democrats. Wisconsin Democrats should have chosen any of the other candidates, in the primary, not this problematic man, with his tax evasion problem. Wisconsin is purple state, that leans a bit red. Barnes, a “progressive” supported by Sanders and the squad, is a very bad fit. At this moment, the trial of a murderous black supremacist, who drove over the Dancing Grannies in a parade, and killed many, is taking place. This evil man was let out on a mere $1K bail, after attempting to kill his baby mama, by running her over. If not for that low bail, five people would still be alive today, and a couple of dozen would not be dealing with permanent injury. We have to be more strategic in our voting, and chose candidates who stand a snowball’s chance of winning.

  7. At least you’re not FEELING blue like me.
    Woke IS awake, GOP is working around the same word 😂😂 They’re waking up 👍

  8. Throw in the border, a warned Armageddon and an incompetent administration and you nailed it.
    Tops on the democrat’s list according to the media: abortion. 🤣

  9. I am registered as Republican but will never vote for them until they say EXACTLY how they plan to fix ANYTHING. I am tired of their complaints without solutions to problems.

  10. Through our Republics democracy all futures are workable.
    Once we lose our democracy and fall into authoritarian government, voting for anything…causes or candidates are forever gone.
    Democracy isn’t perfect, but it leads us towards a more perfect union.
    Authoritarian leads to more for those in power…not the people.
    Does our nation deserve democracy?
    People make a democracy work.
    If people don’t/can’t be bothered with getting involved with their government…then they will get whatever the authoritarian party gives them.

  11. Love these “Crime” ADs that I’m seeing, they are showing BLM riots during Trump’s administration and blaming them on Biden ¯_(ツ)_/¯

  12. It’s safe to say that nobody has ever confused Joe Biden with being brilliant we the people deserve better
