  1. They're trying. It may not work before catastrophic events, if at all.

  2. Find a non-partisan source of information on the legislative record of both parties. There is no equivalency.

  3. If the rule-of-law divides the country, then we have an insurgency [that] didn't stop with January 6th, 2021's violent insurrection and coup d'etat attempt. Donald Trump could have handed over a copy of the warrant upon receiving it. ONLY the DOJ needed the consent of the magistrate, to protect Donald Trump's rights.

  4. The "both sides are out of touch and doing nothing" rhetoric is a lie by my Governor here at worst, and an earnest parroting of a popular fallacy at best. Look at the two lists below, and compare the records of both parties on voter priorities yourself. Pew 2021 Voter Priorities Poll: 1) Economy/jobs (^ NOT inflation, which only got 4% in 2021) 2) COVID 3) Security/terrorism 4) Election security/Campaign finance reform 5) Healthcare Quinnipiac 2022 Voter Priorities Poll: 1) Inflation 2) Gun Violence 3) Economy/jobs 4) Gas/Energy 5) Abortion Economy/jobs - Biden and Democrats have delivered the fastest economic recovery in history, and consistent record-breaking job gains. Check for yourself. COVID - No honest examination of the two parties regarding the global pandemic, from preparedness to combating it and saving lives shows anything but Democrats putting Republicans to shame on this priority. Security/terrorism - Democrats restored the U.S. relationship with NATO, revitalized NATO's mission and got the U.S. out of Afghanistan in time to respond to Russia's second invasion of Ukraine, and Biden took out al-Zawahiri; the last big "face card" in the 911 deck of most wanted. Election security/Campaign finance reform - Since 2010's Citizens United ruling that unleashed money in politics, the Democrats have consistently passed legislation to fix the problem in the U.S. House while Republicans have consistently blocked it (usually refusing to even allow debate or a vote) in the Senate. Most of the Democrats legislation blocked by Republicans also vastly improved election security, ballot security, and better voter receipt/ballot record keeping, and expanded audit/recount capabilities and transparency. Healthcare - Democrats are unmatched regarding the record on healthcare, it's laughable to assert any equivalence. Inflation - Last month, inflation zeroed out and it's likely to trend down much more with the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act (which not a single Republican voted for, even less than the minor support they have to the largest infrastructure investment in the U.S. since the highway system was created) Gun Violence - Biden and Democrats got enough Republican support to finally improve background checks and better red flag law enforcement. They have much more they want, and continue to work with Republicans on firearm safety and public safety to pass more legislation. Gas/Energy - The Inflation Reduction Act is also the largest investment in U.S. energy independence, and unprecedented reinvestment in the industrial manufacturing sector (including historic apprenticeship requirements, plus fair wage and labor protections). The U.S. is truly repositioning to lead the new energy sector with the IRA's 10 year plan and policies. Abortion - This one's personal, I would never want anything than for each person to make their own assessment of the two major parties and their policy priorities here.
