On Tuesday Biden addressed the issue that is paramount on the minds of most voters: the economy. He held a press conference where he spoke about the burdens faced by the American people due to inflation and other economic pressures (video below)<\/em>. His speech<\/a><\/strong> clearly laid out the differences between his agenda and that of the Republican Party. And one segment of the speech encapsulated the message that could turn around the prospects of Democrats if it were effectively communicated. Biden said that…<\/p>\n “Americans have a choice right now between two paths, reflecting two very different sets of values.<\/p>\n “My plan attacks inflation and grows the economy by lowering costs for working families, giving workers well-deserved raises, reducing the deficit by historic levels, and making big corporations and the very wealthiest Americans pay their fair share.<\/p>\n “The other path is the ultra-MAGA plan put forward by congressional Republicans to raise taxes on working families; lower the incomes of American workers; threaten the sacred programs Americans count on like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid; and give break after break to big corporations and billionaires \u2014 just like they did the last time they held power when their top priority was a reckless $2 trillion tax cut going \u2014 the majority of that going to the very wealthiest Americans, which ballooned the deficit, and not a penny of it was paid for.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n That’s it. Democrats are for “lowering costs for working families,”<\/em> and “making big corporations and the very wealthiest Americans pay their fair share.”<\/em> Republicans are for “the ultra-MAGA plan”<\/em> that would lower incomes, threaten Social Security, and give breaks to the wealthy and big business.<\/p>\n If Democrats can drive home those points to the people, they will win handily in November. And Biden also noted that “Republicans have offered plenty of blame but not a single solution.”<\/em> In fact, the GOP is not merely lacking solutions, they actively oppose them. They prefer to let the American people suffer so that they can use their hardship as a political weapon against Biden and the Democrats.<\/p>\n As an example of the two paths that Biden spoke of, a reporter asked the President about remarks made by Sen. Rick Scott of Florida. Scott said that…<\/p>\n “The most effective thing Joe Biden can do to solve the inflation crisis he created is resign. He\u2019s the problem. […] Joe Biden is unwell. He\u2019s unfit for office. He\u2019s incoherent, incapacitated, and confused.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n And those are the sort of infantile insults that are the core of the GOP’s political strategy. Scott is also the chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. It’s his job to design the policy agenda for the party. And the plan that he announced recently<\/a><\/strong> would raise taxes on working families and sunset Social Security and Medicare.<\/p>\n In other words, Republicans are, as usual, promising to give every advantage to the rich, while giving only unfulfillable promises of trickling down to everyone else. It has never worked in the past, and it won’t work now. Democrats need to get that message out quickly and repeatedly for the next six months if they hope to prevail in November. And it wouldn’t hurt either if Congress and the Department of Justice moved more expeditiously on indicting Donald Trump.<\/p>\n RELATED: Former Attorney General Eric Holder Says There is \u2018Sufficient Factual Information\u2019 to Indict Trump<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n NOTE:<\/strong> Twitter suspended the News Corpse account after 11 years without giving a reason.
