Democrats 2032 problem

[The truth seeker]

When you realize both the democrats and republicans serve the wealthy donors & corporations who donate to their political campaigns and not the working class people, it will all start to make sense to you.

Why do you think Donald Trump is allowing Elon Musk to run around and do what he wants and slash social programs and basically defund basically everything? Give him favorable government contracts. It's because he donated hundreds of millions to his campaign, so it's like a return on investment.

Why do you think gun crime and mass shooting hasn't been resolved? Its because the gun lobby pays millions into the coffers of Politicians.

It's not even about political party or economic ideology of socialism/capitalism at that point. It's just basic policies that everyone agrees like you said just now about child tax credit and minimum wage.

Heck child tax break will encourage people to have kids and start families. It's just common sense stuff. Why don't they deliver on that?

Get corporate money out of politics you will have things improve by simply doing that.

Influence of Big Money

A handful of wealthy donors dominate electoral giving and spending in the United States. We need limits on campaign finance, transparency, and effective enforcement of these rules — along with public financing.

Watch this, George Carlin nails it.

I agree with most of what you said but I opposes any restrictions on gun rights I simply don’t trust or have faith in government

Bill Clinton went to hard with gun control and there was backlash all the right wing radio hosts were calling for his head especially after Waco

I think it would be unrealistic to take everyone's guns away or ban it seeing how deeply embedded it is in American culture but they want to create safe regulations , in the purchase, buying, trade, registration, licensing etc. Common sense laws, that apply to everything really.

You should trust the government. Because the data shows the states that have stronger gun laws have lower rates of gun violence

https://everytownresearch.org/rankings/

We compared gun policy across the country, scoring every state on the strength of its gun laws and comparing it with its rate of gun violence. In states where elected officials have taken action to pass gun safety laws, fewer people die by gun violence. Choose a state to see how it stacks up on 50 key policies, or explore a policy to see how much of the country has adopted it.

Gun laws work​

When we compare the states head-to-head on the top 50 gun safety policies, a clear pattern emerges. States with strong laws see less gun violence. Indeed, the states that have failed to put basic protections into place—”national failures” on our scale—have a rate of gun deaths two and a half times higher than the states that are national gun safety leaders.

Also watch this interview, it shows you how brain dead the opposition to Gun Control is.

Don’t have faith in American politicians period particularly ones from SoCAL they have proves themselves to be incompetent fools time and time again also John Stewart hasn’t been entertaining since 2006 however his episode with ezra klein was eye opening


The states and cites that are the most dangerous are the ones with higher levels of poverty doubt it has much to do with politics or guns the Deep South is ranked highly on the list although New Mexico is number one a blue state by the way

New Hampshire is the safest state in America and it has very lax gun laws and a weak regulatory environment in general

New Hampshire is the safest state in the country, per study. See crime rate ranking

The study examined violent crimes across all 50 states to determine which states are the safest in the country. Here's how New Hampshire ranked

Gun laws are one factor, but not the only factor. When gun law researchers study this they correct for other factors such as socioeconomic, demographic, and geographic context, this is what helps to explain its low gun homicide rates.

New hampshire is mostly rural, with low density so it's not going to have the same urban related pre-conditions. It has less economic desperation often means less violent crime, including gun homicides.

Do Gun Regulations Equal Fewer Shootings? Lessons From New England

Gun rights advocates point to New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont to argue you don’t need strong gun laws to keep violence in check. Here’s what the data reveals.

www.thetrace.org

Gun Deaths ≠ Only Homicides

People in New Hampshires delete themselves with guns at a high rate. It's lax gun laws and high gun ownership correlate with higher gun suicide rates.

Suicides make up majority of gun deaths, but remain overlooked in gun violence debate

Suicide is the leading cause of gun-related deaths in the United States. But it's often only an afterthought in the public debate about gun violence.

www.nhpr.org

Another thing is that it benefits from it's neighbors. Even though New Hampshire has weak gun laws, it borders Massachusetts and other strict states (plus Canada). This geographic buffer reduces illegal gun trafficking into New Hampshire and limits the inflow of crime related firearms, which typically travel from weak-law states into urban, high crime areas (not the other way around).

Talked about this a bit before: Again Jon Stewart breaks this down:

Also just to mention the crime rate has gone down nationally and it's even hit historic lows. But Trump and his Republican cohorts are pushing false crime narratives. He tries to justify smearing Milwaukee with it.

Highest crimes are in republican cities but when they point to crime in democrat run cities they leave out it is due to guns being funneled from Republican run cities, like 90% of it.

General violent crime and property crime have gone down since the 90s but gun violence/deaths in America is still much higher than other western nations

It’s true that many cities with high violent crime rates are run by Democrats, but that’s because most major U.S. cities are governed by Democrats, regardless of crime levels.

List of mayors of the 50 largest cities in the United States - Wikipedia

Cities are generally more diverse, urban, and Democratic, while rural areas tend to vote Republican.

7. Partisanship in rural, suburban and urban communities

Registered voters in urban areas mostly align with the Democratic Party. Rural areas are increasingly Republican and suburbs remain divided.

www.pewresearch.org

Urban areas across the world , regardless of politics , tend to have higher crime rates than rural areas simply due to density, inequality, and economic disparity.

Many high-crime cities (like Memphis, New Orleans, St. Louis, and Birmingham) are in red states, even if their mayors are Democrats.

That suggests state-level factors, like gun laws, poverty, education, or healthcare access, also play a big role in crime, not just who’s mayor.

Blue states are defined by their overall policies and legislation. You’re right that most states have red counties and blue cities, but that doesn’t mean red and blue states aren’t real.

The laws that shape people’s lives , like gun policy, abortion rights, taxes, and voting rules , are set at the state level. Austin for example is a progressive city but it's in a red state

States are still functionally “red” or “blue” based on: Which party controls the governorship, legislature, and court appointments

While it's true cities dominate electorally, statewide outcomes matter most for defining state policy, which is why we refer to red/blue states.

Texas is 84 % urban and it’s solid red guess gerrymandering actually works if I was a betting man I would say New Jersey will be a swing state in the next election cycle the state democrat party has completely dropped the ball


Republicans vary from state to state the ones in New Jersey are like moderate dems while the ones in Texas act like they live in autonomous region while democrats who don’t govern a states that’s in flyover country seem to follow the same party doctrine


By the way the current generation of republicans grew up listening to Micheal savage who claimed bill Clinton was a communist and a terrorist and that Obama was Muslim
