Pretty sad, eh?
Because we’re addicted to buffoonery.

Hahaha, you are delusional.
Her momentum has stalled. She is dropping in the polls. She had a lead, now is basically tied or losing the swing states.
The more people get to know her, the less they like her.

Do you think Kamala can actually maintain momentum?
Do the Dems have any new tricks up their sleeve if she starts to falter?
She got the announcement boost, then the Tim Walz boost, and then the Convention boost. But that’s all over and the debate(a) loom large.
Can she translate vibes into policy? Predictions?
Harris is STILL doing quite well.
Trump is close to imploding.

The DNC momentum was a mirage. It's looking like 2016 again.

It's so easy to be a Democrat politician. You get to just promise handout after handout for votes, and when asked how you are going to pay for everything, you get to just say: "I'm going to make sure everyone pays their fair share!!!"
Yes, this means that for a change, the top 0.1% is not going to continue to get tax cuts that allow them to make billions of dollars at the expense of the middle and lower classes. Republican tax cuts have allowed the wealth gap to increase. The difference in wealth between the C-suiters and the average worker keeps climbing. And yet the wealthy and corporations are getting the bulk of the tax cuts. Through to the early 1960's the top marginal tax bracket was around 91%. Now the top marginal tax bracket is 40%. The top marginal tax bracket needs to go up again so that wealth at the highest level is taxed higher. The wealthiest Americans should be paying significantly more than they do. And that is how much of the social safety net for the middle and lower classes and seniors gets funded. Additionally, corporations should not be getting massive tax cuts so they can pay out record bonuses to C-suite execs and record dividends to shareholders. Right now, corporations and the wealthy have been gifted more and more wealth while decreasing the amount that they contribute to the infrastructure of the nation where they make their profits.

You clearly haven't been through a situation like an aging parent with Alzheimer's who needs to be institutionalized or requires basically 24/7 care. If you had, you would understand how emotionally debilitating it is and worse, how costly it is.
Moreover, single adult daughters often quit their jobs to take care of their aging parent(s). If the parent eventually needs to move to a nursing home (e.g., no longer ambulatory), the daughter often ends up with no job, no accrued retirement funds, and no residence if the parent’s home was sold to pay for nursing home costs/qualify for Medicaid. It can be devastating, absolutely devastating, both emotionally and financially. It’s not like employers are looking to hire women in their 60s at a sustainable wage who’ve been out of the work force for 5-10 years.

It amuses me when people speak in absolutes when they have no clue what they are talking about. I "clearly" have two sets of parents in this very situation right now, just FYI.
And to the other poster, if people paid into the system for this, then there would be money for this, right? But there isn't.

I thought Medicare was an entitlement - how is that a handout? Can you explain more about who deserves health insurance in old age?
I can't tell if this is a serious response. You think money for "entitlements" just comes out of thin air?
Good point, let's reverse Trump's tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy so we can fulfill our promise to retiring seniors who paid into the system for decades so that they could receive healthcare in their old age.
