Why in the hell are you voting to raise my taxes and yours?

My new question for MAGAts I run into, when and if they attempt to argue then it's "Have you read
project 2025?" Believe as a party it's time we start framing this election as the rich against the poor.
Didn't FDR use that tactic to his advantage?

But it gets swamped by populist outrage du jour.

Willie Horton's gone (who knows where) but the damage lasts. Same for all the personality politics and identity politics that BURIED THE ISSUES.

Kamala will FRAME THE ISSUES.
