Oh, I think Democrats deliver on a lot of their promises...just the ones that you and I don't like. Abortion on demand, biological men in women's spaces, raise taxes on the rich, easy path for illegals to become legal, promote and defend Islam, raise the minimum wage, etc. They do deliver on those promises, which is why the need to be stopped.

They may not be as bad about talking big and then not delivering as the Republicans, but the gap isn't nearly as wide as it sounds like you might think.

For example, for all Biden's talk about ending fossil fuels, his administration broke the record for domestic oil production during his term. A record previously held by Trump.

And Trump broke the previous record, which was held by...Obama.

Democrats have held the WH and both chambers of Congress a few times since they really ramped up their anti-gun rhetoric in the mid-90s, but they have seldom passed any significant anti-2nd amendment legislation. They didn't even bother to re-pass the 1994 assault weapons ban that expired in 2004 when Obama was POTUS.

They've been crying about prescription drug costs and envy/wealth-taxing "rich" people and corporations and campaign finance reform and national family leave and childcare mandates and higher federal minimum wage, for decades, more recently "de-funding the po-lice," free student loans, etc., etc., and their party hasn't done any of those things either.

So it's more even than you think. And their base complains about it just like the Republican base complains about it.

The difference being if the Democrats actually accomplish their goals it would destroy the nation, if Republican leadership actually did anything they promised it would help the nation.

These projects are because of funding from the CHIPS act and infrastructure bill Biden signed.

Ethanol mandates should be completely eliminated full stop tomorrow.

Higher animal feed cost get passed down to the consumer.
More average of corn reduces the amount of land for other crops.


But for some reason politicians feel they need to Iowa Caucus in their pocket to be relevant

I don’t know why this is so difficult for some to understand.

I think most people know it, and the ones bitching just hate Trump.

And…I don’t understand the unbridled hatred towards Trump either. The alternatives were WAAAY worse.

They will run on stopping any conflict with Iran for starters. Appeasing the crazy mullahs, hell even giving them $$$ to reopen the SOH.

And they will win.

Democrats are conflicted

One the one hand they want high prices to steer consumer behavior to electric

On the other hand, they want lower prices because many in their party have low incomes

But it wouldn't necessarily help the politicians, which is the point.

Lol ?? the dems plan is to limit refinery capacity, tax gasoline production for global warming and to ban energy exploration permanently. All of these plans will drastically lower gas prices at the pump.

The dipshit Dems are the ones that created this massive "Unaffordability Crisis" as a poison pill that could not be easily solved. They did this on purpose, and now want to bitch that Orange can't fix it.

Trump does more before 9am on any given day to help solve the issues that, the brain dead drooling corpse known as Joe Biden created his entire 4 years he was in office ever did to improve our plight as a country.

Biden didn't hit a lick after 11am due to his Dementia Naps. He also didn't do a fricking thing any of the 208 weekends he was in office beside passing out with his mouth open at his Delaware beach compound.

Between the forced COVID SHOT, letting MILLIONS OF CRIMINALS and TERRORISTS IN OUR COUNTRY, and PRETENDING HE WAS PRESIDENT with the help of the Mainstream Media, while he had tapioca pudding for brains - if you vote Democrat, you are an enemy of our country.
