In the 2022 midterm campaigns, Republicans made a lot of noise about addressing crime (caused by easy access to unlimited guns and ammo), inflation (caused by conservative refusal to corporate economic bullies engaged in price gouging), economic issues (caused when working people do not have enough income from good-paying jobs to stimulate domestic consumer demand) and the border crisis (caused by Trump destroying the proactive policies that Clinton, Dubya Bush and Obama had been put in place and then lying to the most economically desperate immigrants and inviting them here with untrue promises that Democrats would allow “open borders” when the opposite was true).
All that talk about issues people really care about was just bait-and-switch BS to trick gullible suckers into voting for them. They gave lip service to those issues, but never actually offered any specific solutions or proposals.
After losing several governorships, a senate seat and several state legislatures flipped from red to blue as their predicted “Big Red Wave” defied historical odds and almost totally fizzled, and all they got to show for their extremist rhetoric was a tiny sliver of a majority in the House of Representatives instead of the 40 to 60 seat gain they had predicted, they are not even going to try to address any issues of crime, inflation, the economy or their border crisis.
Instead, they are going to wage war against Social Security, Medicare and anything that actually helps middle-class working people or those in time of need.
