[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t want to vote Democrat because in my view
- they pay too much attention to foreign policy and too little to domestic issues;
- encourage abuse of immigration system;
- encourage homelessness (by throwing money at the problem without enforcing any effective but unpopular solutions);
- increase inflation by giving out handouts (I am low income so I like that but it’s not the solution)
- too much identity politics 
I hate it that Roe v Wade is even debated let alone overturned but I have accepted that America will never be a truly progressive country. And I don’t mean progressive as in using identity politics everywhere [/quote]

Foreign policy and domestic issues are interrelated.  And Republicans' idea of domestic policy is "government so small you can drown it in a bathtub" which would send us back to being a 3rd world country.
Republicans have no genuine solutions for the immigration system.  They haven't backed visa reform or anything else that would solve most of the problems, just these glib slogans like "build the wall" - which Mexicans cut through with cheap battery powered angle grinders.
Republicans cause homelessness by failing to support mental health care, failing to support drug treatment and rehab, failing to support lower housing costs, failing to improve wages and benefits
Republicans fail to recognize that most of our inflation is driven by the private sector and dependence on oil and gas, and have no answers for inflation
Republicans are the ones driving their own massive culture war, 98% of their entire platform is based on "owning the libs" and exploding fringe issues like imaginary K12 teaching of CRT that didn't actually even happen, or the handful of trans athletes into a national meltdown.  Republicans are the ones who spend hundreds of dollars illegally modifying their oversized but underutilized diesel pickup trucks to spew clouds of black smoke at random strangers riding bikes or driving Priuses while complaining about the cost of fuel.

Take a step back and really look at your party and who you support.[/quote]
