Rat Pollster comes up with a strategy for the midterms and you'll be shocked at his answer

More "free" shit and raise taxes.

So if we’re able to do something — a skinny BBB or whatever — on health insurance costs, prescription drug costs, elderly care, childcare, that’s a big deal because it will give Democrats a competitive advantage on what they’re doing for working families. And it’ll cut through the inflation narrative, the Ukraine narrative, the Afghan narrative, the border narrative, et cetera. Right now, we don’t see that and we don’t have that.

No one’s going to sit there as a Democratic consultant and try to bullshit you that this is anything but a really sour environment for Democrats. So we better look at the strategic ways that we can compete, right? Just compete to not get our asses kicked.

Most Americans are pissed at the fact that they pay their fair share in taxes as middle-class people. They work hard. They want to see the benefits of the economy. They’re getting raises.

Yes, inflation’s eating it up, but I’ll tell you what they’re pissed about: … They see these big companies not paying any taxes. And Biden’s proposal of making those making over $400,000 pay a little bit more taxes and big corporations pay a little bit more taxes so they pay their fair share to make investments in healthcare and education and childcare is really important.

    I don't give a fuck what someone else pays in taxes.

    This is actually bullshit. Most Americans pay little if any Federal income taxes.

    And the wealthy pay the vast majority of income taxes and property taxes. And it's always "a little bit more". Then they pass a major tax bill like they did in the Portland Metro area to "solve" homelessness and the problem gets worse. So, it's back to just make the wealthy pay "a little bit more". The US economy was in great shape in March of 2020 and because leftards care so much, they destroyed the economy.

    Yeah I don't think people are mad about other tax bills. I mean like dumb 20 year olds are.

    It's the fact that everything is shit and the COL is outpacing everything drastically

    The latest poles for the Vegetable are devastating and the number one reason is inflation according to those poled. They don’t give a crap about someone making $400K and what they’re paying.

    It’s gonna be a slaughter. I’m hoping for a DIM party near extinction event.

    Carter cured a generation. Unfortunately that generation failed to teach their children. Biden is so bad he may cure two or three generations.
