it's was easy...

...for the pukes to attack Obamacare, it was one large program...and when they steal Congress again you know they'll be coming after whatever we do here and now...

...so, we might as well spend the 3.5 trillion dollars plus on as many social programs as we can to create as many moving targets as possible...

...to try to destroy dozens of on-going programs will not only be difficult it will be next to impossible without pissing off millions upon millions of voters...

...and if we settle for a paltry trillion with chumped programs, the pukes will just give away any difference (and then some) to their billionaire buddies the next time they steal Congress and the WH...

...we need to create as many programs now for the working class, not turn billionaires into trillionaires...

...what we should be doing is turning billionaires into millionaires...

...hang in there...

1. Good strategy, but wouldn't it be easier to re-elect better Democrats where needed?

Here's a scenario-

Democrats surprise most media and actually increase seats in both House and Senate. Now Joe calls Manchin and Sinema - on 11/4/2022 and asks them....ready to play ball?

2. Well we have two senators in our party who don't seem to be on board with anything

I think almost every Democrat wants to do whatever we can to expand the social safety net and lift Americans out of poverty. In fact we all pretty much are singing from the same hymnal except Manchin and Sinema. We are open to any suggestion that will deal with that
