OFFICIAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY PLATFORM ~ [with my comments] The Democratic National Committee's (DNC) Key PlanksThe platform is organized into nine chapters. Here is a high-level summary of the core planks: democrats.org 1. Growing Our Economy from the Bottom Up & Middle Out • Invest in infrastructure, manufacturing, and American jobs. [Trump does that for real, not broken promises.] • Support small businesses, agriculture, and workers. [Trump cut regs, cut tax on tips, overtime and inheritance, etc.] • Fight poverty and end "special interest giveaways." [Like fraudulent child care, hospice care, NGO fraud, congressional insider trading, etc.] 2. Rewarding Work, Not Wealth • Cut taxes for working families. Since when? Where? How? • Make wealthy individuals and large corporations pay a "fair share" in taxes. Define “fair share”? [How is that determined by who?] • Oppose trickle-down economics. [And replace it with what?]<span style="background-color: transparent;">3. Lowering Costs <span style="background-color: transparent;">• Expand access to affordable health care and lower prescription drug prices (e.g., via Medicare negotiations). [Why expand failed “Obama Care”? when Trump already gave us lower drug prices and less Medicare/Medicaid fraud.] </span>• Support child care, home care, paid leave, and affordable housing. Support? You mean protect the fraudulent scams that steal your tax money! • Address costs of gas, groceries, and education. LOL! How? • Protect and strengthen Social Security, Medicare, and pensions (oppose privatization or cuts; expand benefits by taxing the wealthy more). [What happens when you run out of billionaires and millionaires to tax after they all move away?] </span>4. Tackling the Climate Crisis, Lowering Energy Costs, & Securing Energy Independence • Invest in clean energy production, jobs, and innovation. [How are you going to do that when you stopped building pipelines, exploration and drilling energy? Waste tax money on non-cost-effective alternative energy sources?] • Reduce pollution, hold polluters accountable, and advance environmental justice. • Build climate-resilient communities and lead globally on climate. [Pie-in-the-sky BS, the proof is in the pudding! All talk and no action!] 5. Protecting Communities & Tackling Gun Violence Gun violence is committed by criminals, drug addicts and mentally insane people! [TAKE THEM OFF THE STREET!] • Support gun safety measures. Guns don’t kill people, people kill people! • Reform policing and criminal justice. [You actually mean “Defund the Police” and let criminals go free!] • Address violence against women and enhance public safety. [But Democrat District and States Attorneys don’t prosecute criminals! And why only women?] 6. Strengthening Democracy, Protecting Freedoms, & Advancing Equity • Appoint judges who protect rights. [BS! LOOK AT THE RESULTS of Democrat elected and appointed judge’s decisions!] They don’t protect people’s rights, they ignore their rights in favor of Woke agenda. • Protect voting rights. [LOL!] • Advance reproductive freedom (restore Roe v. Wade as law of the land, repeal Hyde Amendment, support access to abortion including medication abortion). frc.org [KILL THE BABIES!] • Promote women’s rights, racial equity, LGBTQ+ rights (including the Equality Act and protections against discrimination), disability rights, and support for Tribal Nations. [Moot point! Women, gays, trans, etc. already have all the same rights as everybody else!] • Combat hate, protect freedom of religion and the press, and support D.C., Puerto Rico, and territories. [This is a Democrat hypocritical joke!] 7. Securing Our Border & Fixing the Broken Immigration System • Secure the border. [Ha! Ha! Ha! – get real, never happen.] • Expand legal immigration pathways while deterring illegal immigration. [BS you mean pathway to illegal alien voter fraud and census packing for illegal reapportionment.] • Pursue comprehensive reform, including a pathway to citizenship for long-term undocumented immigrants. [NO! This is not reform; it is voter fraud! It has never worked properly before and it won’t work now!] 8. Advancing the President’s Unity Agenda • Combat the opioid epidemic and invest in mental health. [Good, but how?] • Protect kids online and strengthen data privacy. [Good, but how and when?] • Promote competition, end cancer as we know it (Cancer Moonshot), and support veterans and military families. [Good idea, but how?] 9. Strengthening American Leadership Worldwide [Do you mean like Afghanistan? Iran? Benghazi, Gaza, etc.] • Support allies (e.g., in Europe, Indo-Pacific). [What feckless allies?] Address challenges from China and in the Middle East (including support for Israel’s defense with humanitarian efforts and ceasefire pushes), Western Hemisphere, and Africa. [Do you mean using NGOs to launder money to political cronies and crocked politician’s foundations.] • Strengthen the U.S. military, economy, and diplomacy while leading with American values. [THIS IS THE MOST ABSURDLY RIDICULES PROMISE SO FAR!]
