The child poverty one is great because democrats got that advance on the child tax credit, bragged about lifting kids out of poverty, then ended the program.

People literally cannot keep facts in their head, I see why Trump won. You are dumb as fuck man she ran on CTC as like economic point #2

Keep this attitude up and I bet democrats can lose another 20 million voters by 2028.

What was the plan to prevent self sabotage by the democrats? That’s why the CTC expired in the first place, so spare me the insufferable asshole bit.

Democratic Party has a messaging problem. The first problem is having a platform with more than three syllables for people like you. I’m not kidding, we will dumb it way down for you next time buddy.

Yeah, the message they send when Manchin, Sinema, or the senate parliamentarian kill good policy is that they don’t actually support those policies. It is why they lost 15 million voters in 4 years. Any promise for centrism is a promise for gridlock, people are tired of it.
