What is so sad is the way that the left and the dems are after their "debate" (public ad for every candidate).

We have one lefty thinking that Iran has been doing what they were supposed to do after the "deal" that the previous president made with them.  That obviously has not happened with Iran bragging about going against the  "deal".  Lesson learned.  Giving a rouge regime "flexibility" and a pallet of cash isn't going to fix the problem.

Why this announcement from Iran?  Why the attack on the tankers and the shooting down of our drone?  Because the sanctions put in place by the current administration are working.  Their economy is suffering because of it and eventually it will force them back to the negotiating table.

Why did the Mexican government choose to do what they have done regarding the border crisis?  Because of the threat of tariffs became a reality and would hurt their economy much worse than ours.

Why does a dictator agree to meet with our President at the DMZ and invite him into the country?  While many leftists say that it was "dangerous" and a "photo op" it was actually a historic moment.  Kim Jun Un did it because he see's that our current President isn't [BLEEP] around.

Meanwhile after I finally got to watch the "debates" (democrat advertising) in their entirety I got the following from them (note, nothing really on foreign policy or the economy).

1  "Free" college

2. "Free" healthcare to all including those that broke the law and entered the country illegally.

3. Forgive the debt that people signed a contract for (student loans).  I personally have paid off every single loan that I ever made.

4.  Give "reparations" to black people because at one time black people were slaves in this country.

5.  Corporations are bad MKAY?

6.  We need to confiscate the wealth of some individuals because they are wealthy.

7.  We need to tax individuals that earn a very good salary that you know... they EARNED it.

8.  We need to repeal the President Trump tax cuts because it only benefits the "very top" of our income earners.  I don't know about anyone else on this board but between my wife and I we earn a 6 figure income.  We are FAR away from the "top 1%" of wage earners.  I consider us middle class or perhaps "upper middle class" if we really want to put people into categories.  I saw my actual income tax bill go down this year.  I'm not talking about "how much you get back" when filing your taxes or "how much you have to pay".  I look at the line on my tax forms that shows total tax owed and mine was less this year.

9.  Most it not all of them complained about the economy "working for everybody".  There are more jobs available right now and so much money to be made.  The economy is roaring and the stock market is breaking all time highs right now.  Lower information people that might contribute a small amount into their company provided 401k probably don't realize that they are making money.

In the end, the democrat party has moved so far left and has been embracing socialist policies and quite frankly none of them have a real vision for the future.  They have turned into the party of seizing wealth and distributing it as they see fit in order to stay in power.
