Since 1953, the United States has had 13 economic collapses. 12 of those economic collapses were under Republican run and lead government. I am 45 years old. In my entire lifetime 100% of all Republican presidents that have come into office, have come into office during an economic boom and crashed the economy by the time they left office. 100% of them in this time. This includes Donald Trump. I am not a Democrat. I am not Republican. I have only ever liked a handful of presidents throughout history and they are very well split up between the two parties and a few from prior to the two party system. However, after every single economic collapse, there are a few notable ones like under Reagan and one under Bush Junior, which were some of the worst in our entire history. No matter, after all of them our Inflation goes up wages go down and the middle class has never fully recovered from any of them since the 50s. That means every single economic collapse has hurt the future of our children more than the generation before and we can all see it. Our government has turned into culture wars. But we don’t have to like each other. We just have to get along, and have the same rights. Our governments job is to handle the economy and foreign affairs. I have no time for my government becoming a soap opera. They don’t handle their job. Because nobody’s going to care if there’s a man in a dress if our children are starving, and after every economic collapse, the middle class has gotten smaller and smaller and the number poor have grown. Every adult remembers when there were very few homeless and now it is out of control. We especially remember not seeing so many old homeless. The first major wave of homeless came after Ronald Reagan defunded mental healthcare in the 80s and we hadn’t seen a homeless population like that since the great depression of the 30s. it appears as though politically within my lifetime that voting for a republican president 100% of the time will crash the economy and move the middle class farther into poverty than the day before based on already existing statistics. I don’t care about the culture wars. They have always and will always exist, but the American dream was created by the strongest middle class in our history, and our culture wars are killing that American dream, and replacing it with a growing poverty. I want my children to have a future, and it will not happen if they are forced into destitution. And it’s happening. You can see it in the masses of growing homeless no matter the excuses that are politicians give no matter the words that come out of their mouth. I cannot afford another economic collapse, and neither can the masses of this country even if it makes you feel good about the person. Voting Republican has never saved you from the same fate as every other Democrat when your economy crashes. Everybody in the middle class was hit by It . Everyone in poverty feels it. We have been hit by it and continues to be hit by it. Let’s talk about our present day inflation. The Ukraine war and gouging are the two reasons we have such high inflation at present. And no matter the words that come out of Republicans mouths in government, they have overwhelmingly voted for every single Ukraine bill from the get-go meaning that the Ukraine war is completely by partisan overwhelmingly by both parties, making it equally both parties inflation. Secondarily was gouging. At least, in this particular case, Democrats offered a no gouging bill of which they only required two Republicans to agree to in order to pass it, which would have prevented the remaining inflation from hurting us. However, out of the roughly 250 Republicans, we got zero of them Meaning that their goal to hurt the American people into feeling the pain of inflation was more valuable to them than not hurting us as people, even if it was their own constituents who would also feel the hurt of that act. At this moment, the Ukraine war is 50-50 Democrat, Republican, and the gouging is officially all the Republicans as Democrats at least attempted to do something about it. That makes 3/4 of the inflation that we feel presently the fault of Republicans actions and only 1/4 the fault of Democratic actions. Like I said, I don’t have time for the words they use. I’m looking at their actions and I don’t care if it’s a Republican or Democrat who gets it done. I do care if they’re willing to get it done for the American people to live better and have a better economy. And it appears as though this particular Congress, the Republicans would rather their constituents and other constituents suffer so that they can make a point to those that don’t pay attention. That’s officially bad government. And with the track record of 100% of them crashing the economy in my lifetime I am unsatisfied by their work and their work ethic. That is my only reason for voting for anyone else. I have also voted third-party as well. I’ll stop saying it when it stops being true.

100% of Republicans over the last 50 years have crashed the economy by the time they left office. I am not a Democrat. I am not a Republican. I have only liked handful of presidents in our entire history. They are very diverse in party. My top two favorite Republican Eisenhower and Democrat Franklin Roosevelt. In my entire lifetime every Republican that has come into office has crashed the economy by the time they left office. Now I have not liked any of the Democrats or the Republican presidents have come to power within that time as far as historical reasons go. However, of the two parties I have seen a distinction. Let me explain. Two of the worst crashes in US history happened under Republicans within my lifetime Reagan and Bush Junior. Reagan brought back citizens United, which ultimately is the reason why the Rich pay for our presidents now. It is also the reason why I don’t like either party anymore. he also regulated Wall Street and banks of which allowed them to pretty much rob us and has led to every economic collapse since. He broke unions which is the number one reason why pay has been cut in half. Actually Ronald Reagan did so many things I could just do this all day. Nixon is the number one reason upped today. He made Healthcare a four profit industry of which is now the number one reason people go bankrupt in our country. It’s the reason why $10 shot of insulin cost $600. It is the reason why we spend more for healthcare per capita than countries that have free healthcare. Thank you, Republican president Nixon. he is the first president ever tried to democracy in our country. Which is why he had to resign. George Bush Junior expanded the NSA to spy on US citizens. Prior to that it was against our constitution as well as it was when he did it. But his all Republican government at the time instead of arresting him for crimes against the United States citizens of this country and treason instead they just made it a law to allow our government to spy on us. That is what Snowden is all about. He is the number one reason that we went from one dollar a gallon for gas to five under his presidency and we have never actually gone down in cost of price of gas from that point on. I know people like to argue that Trump brought it down however he did not. in fact for the same argument that they made that should’ve been five dollars a gallon under Bush Junior as the argument was supply and demand, and they argued that China’s industry was costing us four times more in oil however they kept accidentally overcharging fourfold every single year more and more. So while Covid existed and the entire world grind to a halt and for the first time in world history after the industrial revolution that gas was actually at a negative as they were still pumping and had no place to store it so we’re paying people to store it should’ve therefore been five cents under Donald Trump but somehow he could only get it down to two dollars which is twice as much as the one dollar under Bush Junior. When the whole world was using gas. He also was one of the most expensive presidents in our history so the majority of this debt is a big part of his actions. Donald Trump is also one of the most expensive presents in our history. He spent more money than almost all of them. He also had the worst foreign affairs of any president in our history. he directly told Putin if he attacked Ukraine, the United States would standby and then he took funding to protect Ukraine away from Ukraine, of which United States is always funded. As far as Netanyahu, he did a historic no by excepting Jerusalem as the head of state for Israel, as when it was founded the entire world agreed that that would be a threat of world war that would never end. And Trump did it. As well as he told Netanyahu in reference to Gaza to complete the job, and that the United States would back him if he did. I believe that we would not have had either of these circumstances between Russia or Israel had Donald Trump not done that. Donald Trump also severely alienated our allies, which is a first time in our history, as well as he also broke out of several deals that were made by prior presidents, which is historic as well because other countries have argued due to our unstable presidency being so possibly changeable every four years that making deals with us was possibly sketchy. So every president prior has held to our international agreements of previous presidents in order to preserve our word having any value in the world community. And Donald Trump destroyed that. Historically horrible. Making him officially the worst president in international affairs. As well as Donald Trump could have altered immigration, in fact, every Republican really had a shot as most of them held total control at one point in the presidency in my lifetime. immigration law hasn’t changed for 70 years. Another thing that hasn’t happened in 70 years is taking the money that we use taxes and putting it back into our society in the form of infrastructure. The last president to really do so was Eisenhower. It changed America for the better. Now Obama suggested it, but could not get Republicans to follow through with it or agree to it. It would’ve benefited Americans countrywide for both good paying jobs as well as better infrastructure overall involving the electrical grid. Now don’t get me wrong. There are plenty of things. I don’t like about Obama as well however, that’s a big one and Republicans messed up ball. However, has indeed reinstated the first real money back into our country under the infrastructure bill. he is the first president and immigration reform law under Donald Trump. He only used an existing temporary law that already existed that he was only able to use during Covid meaning that if he really wanted to make immigration reform law or the things that people liked that he did involving immigration were only temporary. He knew it. He could’ve changed it and he didn’t. However, we have a president who is offering everything Republicans have ever said they wanted an immigration reform over the last 70 years and not done themselves. They are the only ones not signing it. Meaning that at that very moment that they chose not to sign that they are fully responsible for any immigration issues were having as they are the only party not willing to do anything involving immigration reform. and it’s everything they said they wanted. There was nothing else in those bills. Let’s talk inflation that we are all feeling right now. Immigration is two things Ukraine war that stopped Russia from selling its oil, and gas gouging which led to other gouging. 100% of Ukraine bills have been signed by both Democrat and Republican making that inflation 50-50. However, Democrats did offer a no gas gouging bill of which we only needed two Republicans to sign to ease that inflation for the American people. Two out of roughly around 250 to choose from. Zero Republicans were willing to sign in order to help Americans. Making all of that inflation on them. Meaning that 3/4 of our inflation that we are feeling is caused by the actions of Republicans. Only one quarter is caused by the actions of Democrats. So if you wanna know who’s hurting American citizens right now and involving the pain of inflation 3/4 of it falls on Republicans. I will give Democrats credit for the fact that under Trump, which everybody thought was so great and realistically it was not as great as you remember and on top of it was also in part by actions of Democrats as under Trump everybody got relief, bills paid, which Democrats also approved meaning that they would not have passed without the assistance of Democrats, but Democrats decided that the success and economic hardships of the American people were more important than making. Trump look good. So that means the Democratic Party was willing to take a hit so they could help Americans. However, Republicans have not been willing to do the same for Americans. Nobody’s gonna care about these stupid soap opera culture wars children are starving. Nobody’s going to care about a man wearing a dress or school removing a book from its library if their children have no future. After every economic collapse, the middle class has gotten smaller and more people have gotten more poor and hardship has expanded officially ending the American dream. Well in my entire lifetime the only to collapse our economy has been Republicans. I do not believe in putting my head in the sand culture wars.
