1. Crime - So much here. Guns don't hurt people. They never have. The availability of guns is probably a factor in the types of crimes that are committed but not a factor in the overall crime rate because other crimes are still happening and there are so many variables here that it's impossible to just blame guns. One need look no further than the people that live in these cities that are so impacted by crime to see what's going on and that there is a significant problem in the breakdown of law and order. Further. you'd have to be willing to suspend disbelief to not acknowledge the way the police have been treated for every single move they make (even when it's a justifiable one) has had an impact on how law enforcement has carried out. That's before even getting to the statistics of officers shot/killed in the line of duty which has increased dramatically.
According to statistics reported to the FBI, 59 police officers were killed in the line of duty from January 1, 2021, to September 30, 2021.

Lastly, this argument about crime increasing in Trump states is absurd on its face. First of all, this is the United States and we don't have states that belong to one side or the other. California is among our most Democrat leaning states yet it has more Republicans in it than any other state in the United States. But taking that at face value, what he doesn't say is that the rise is crime is driven by violence in cities that are nearly 100% controlled by Democrats. That's just a super lame argument. Anyone want to debate that cities like Memphis, New Orleans, St. Louis, Atlanta, etc. aren't entirely controlled by Democrats? It's so bad in Atlanta that the people in Buckhead want to split off and form their own city so they can make public safety a priority. The denial of what's going on with crime is one of the most disprovable, deceitful, patently false thing I've ever heard. That you would defend an alternative reality for political gain tells the whole story about your character and motivations.
2. Inflation - LOL where to begin. The definition of inflation is too much money following too few goods. Certainly were it not for Biden's drunken spending spree we'd still have inflation. That much is true. However, if we'd have announced clear and decisive action to deal with energy issues it would have helped immensely in dealing with inflation caused by Putin's War. Why does the war matter? Well because of our inability to have a self-sufficient energy policy and provide energy to our allies we are forced to depend on people like Putin and Saudi Arabia. That's just not a smart way of doing things. Further, everyone including people like Larry Summers have warned about the spending policies since this all began. To try and say that Biden's policies haven't impacted inflation his a claim that is demonstrably false.
The Fed was still buying bonds early this year. That's just amazing. Why was this happening you ask? Well a lot of it is politically driven. The Fed has become very political which is why the former Fed chair is not the Secretary of the Treasury. That's insane.
As Summers noted Fed policy plus the overheating through stimulus has left us in a very compromised position. It wasn't entirely avoidable but it was something that could have been limited dramatically by better policy by the Biden Administration and especially the Federal Reserve. Those people should be fired but I sure has hell don't want anyone tied to Biden having a hand in replacing them. Nor do I want that from Trump either who is also a fiscal idiot. It's ironic when he talks about the GOP protecting its corporate buddies that he shows pictures of Starbucks and Amazon/Bezos. Those are all Democrats supporters. In fact, look at the largest companies in the US and you'll see big corporations LOVE Democrats now. Why? Because their policies create bigger companies and stifle competition. They always have.
3. The IRS - He says they won't be going after regular Americans. Even the IRS has said this isn't entirely true. And let's just say it is true and they go after corporations that are "tax cheats" as he calls them. How is it a tax cheat to us the tax code put forth by our government and have astute accountants that are able to minimize taxes paid? If they are following the rules what's the problem? Further, if they do get a lot of money from corporations that cut into their bottom line, who do you think they are going to pass that on to? None of it adds up and the insatiable appetite of the government for more of our money is something that you can always count on when the Democrats are in charge.
I could go on and on with this clown. The guy is one of the most dishonest people I know of. I'd LOVE to debate him. All I would need is the truth. Look, you may love Democratic policies and think they are the right way to lead our nation. That's your right to feel that way. But it's pretty disgraceful the way you try to find "facts" to fit your desired narrative that aren't even facts. I don't know how you can just sit there and constantly link lies and distortions to further you desired agenda without seeing something is wrong here. It'd be great if you actually thought for yourself.
I write all my own posts. I know what I am talking about because I have educated myself on the issues. You just link Twitter and other people's thoughts because it doesn't appear you have any of your own. Recommend you spend some time learning and educating yourself. You'll find that both sides have absolutely essential contributions to make to our country. One side doesn't have all the answers. The problem we have now is we don't work together. Part of that is because of doofuses like you who just can't seem to pull your head out of your ass! Get off my lawn you clown!!!
