    Default Republicans are embarrassed to tell us what they are for

    President Biden at his news conference last week asked the question that the media should have been asking Republicans for months: “What are they for?”

    Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) won’t say.

    Asked last week what was in Republicans’ agenda if they regain control of Congress, McConnell told reporters: “That is a very good question. And I’ll let you know when we take it back.”

    "Republicans have clear views on taxes. They want to protect the super-rich from paying more taxes, even though billionaires became 62 percent richer during the pandemic and many pay practically no federal income taxes. And Republicans really don’t want corporations to pay their fair share either."

    Each political party decides on their platform as a group

    Dementia Joe is a national embarrassment

    They aren't for anything. Their platform and McConnells legislative agenda are proof of this.

    They are for their own power. They are against everything the Democrats want, no matter what it is.

    Why would they be embarrassed, everyone knows what they are for, anything Trump is for, or says he is for, often changes by the day

    this thread is hilarious.

    hey liberals - thanks for proving you are complete imbeciles that have no idea how things work

    I get it that Joe doesn't - he has dementia

    but you fucking retards might want to actually learn what the point of your retard convention is for. it isn't just to get together and decide which imbecile with dementia you are going to vote on - it is to agree to a platform

    so thanks for proving you are as clueless as the guy drooling in the oval office

    I guess the GOP is afraid to admit they are cowards.

    You kidding, party platforms coming out of party conventions are worthless, and have been since mid way thru the last Century, you ever read one, full of platitudes and weak on content, meaningless

    Political parties have basic principles they support, least one does today, the GOP has nearly abandoned those principles it once employed to define itself, why a person become a Republican, today, it is just what Donnie does and says

    Your 2020 Conservative platform was that COVID was a hoax and Nazis are "very fine people".

    Unless, there was another platform Conservatives have that I didn't hear about.
    When I die, turn me into a brick and use me to cave in the skull of a fascist

    Nah, that is not true, part of their predicted success next November is due to history and demographics, and a large reason for the rest is disproval of the Party in control, very little of it has anything to do with what the GOP is for or about
