Oh thats my bad, I thought this comment chain was coming off the statement “the child tax credit only lasted one year, and the cost reduction was only for the elderly”
I guess your argument is that the policy was right wing because it didnt do enough. Is that correct?
My point is that dems are left wing because they try and push the country left.
The extra $300 per month would be a better argument if they tried to keep it going instead of letting it lapse…
They used to run on being left then only doing extremely watered down policies.
My point is that dems are left wing because they try and push the country left.
In 2024 they ran on more war, higher funding to the military, and implementing gop immigration policy. Again after seeing how popular left wing policies were in the polls.
But yeah they’re totally working hard to push the country left
Not since we entered the nuclear age, now it’s about strategic deterents and soft power not actually military power. Especially post Vietnam showing it doesn’t matter how strong the force is against a determined and ingrained insurgent force.
Reguardless if that was actually the case its still a massive example of the Democrats shift to more right-wing policies. Especially when its taking away from actually improving the country.
Maintaining nuclear assets and a technological advantage requires money.
Maintaining the ability to actually project power overseas requires money.
Both of these are a key part of American deterrence strategy. Its not a left/right policy to fund the military. Its about why you’re funding it and the dems were funding it for the goal of maintaining global security which is a left wing liberal idea. You can’t put your head in the sand and ignore geo politics.
When did I say it was only a year?
Even with dems the usa has a right wing government.

I’m guessing you think supporting Ukraine is running on a platform of “more war”.
Interesting that’s the one you focused on.
You do realise that a strong military is widely agreed to be the biggest thing that deters wars. Especially between super powers.
