President Biden and the Senate and House Democrats are working hard for us. The rethugs are despicable.

So will the people that don’t believe Biden is president forfeit those $1400 checks if they have his signature on them?

10. Now THAT is the kind of slogan and messaging that Democrats need more of!

The R's are masters of bumper-sticker slogans for concepts or tissue paper-thin policies, and it's been very effective for them.

As benefits roll out we need to make sure we get this message out far & wide.

12. It does beg the question of what use the Republicans are? They appear to be against doing anything

helpful, unless they get to write the terms and give no-bid contracts to all their patrons.

They still do not understand how to lead on an issue, or cope constructively with a problem, or how it might be important to do the right thing once in a while even though it doesn't grant you exclusive power. That is the difference between the GOP of 40 years ago and what we have in Congress and the State houses now.

I doubt the current GOP can learn any of this. They are not disposed to reason and compromise. They seem entirely beholden to the wealthy clients and institutions who paid to elect them. One might even say they are wholly owned subsidiary agents.

16. So Biden is trying to help the folk out there and get the economy back on track?

And the Republicans aren't having any of that?

Someone needs to ask every single Republican politician to please explain their position and logic behind it!

People who follow, believe and vote Republican either have a screw loose, or have a death wish.

Perhaps Republicans can't see a link between their destructive goals and losing the election, the Senate and the House?
Perfectly clear link there, to my mind.
