The massive query is what are Republicans planning on doing on these points. As Bernstein identified, the reply is nothing. The Republican reply is to chop taxes for the wealthy, make healthcare costlier, and take medical insurance away from 40 million folks.
Trump and nobody in his get together have laid out how they may deal with inflation, and let’s face it, the negativity being felt in regards to the economic system shouldn’t be about jobs or wages. It’s inflation, and Republicans don’t have any plan to carry inflation down. Lowering authorities spending gained’t decrease inflation. Reducing taxes for the wealthy will increase inflation.
Republicans don’t have any plan and little interest in the problem.
If inflation retains falling, the angst that Trump and the GOP are relying on for 2024 gained’t be there. Because it stands, Biden is in first rate form to be reelected as a result of the choice that Republicans have put ahead is Donald Trump.
