All the racist stuff and culture war BS is a distraction. Economists studied the data and found republicans are bad for the economy, which is what everyone who’s lives through their policies would tell you. They help out their wealthy donors, which is why they get the “good for economy” label but that’s a lie and myth.

Many analyses look at which party is best for the economy. A study from the National Bureau of Economic Research found that Democratic presidents since World War II have performed much better than Republicans. On average, Democratic presidents grew the economy by 4.4% each year versus 2.5% for Republicans.

Republicans are just bad at running the country on so many levels.

    It’s kind of hard to say with 750,000 people now homeless. 65% people living paycheck to paycheck. 53% of people either under or uninsured. The elderly being priced out of their homes and becoming the fasting growing segment of the unhoused. Where the 1% possess 95% of all the world’s wealth. Credit card debt is through the roof and auto repossessions are right behind it.

      Every bit of legislation meant to relieve economic burdens off the working class has been voted against Republicans in congress

        Democrats have zero interest in relieving economic burden of the working class, If they did, they would be pushing for livable wages, affordable housing, affordable education and affordable health care. All things that are not even mentioned in their current platform.

      Show me where Republican policies would solve any of that. I’ll wait.

        Republicans don’t pretend to care., Democrats don’t care either, but they talk like they do
