How much stuff have BOTH parties promised and never delivered? Lots. And this one is being hijacked by the lawsuits from Republican run States so they’re the road block not the Democrats.
The Republicans are hell bent on making abortion illegal nationwide. And pushing their religious agenda on us all. The Democrats may not get their agenda passed, but it’s far scarier that the Republicans could.
Relax, you'll still be able to kill your child legally.
Dems Bought the Election by Selling Students a Bill of Goods
.
Honestly, if you believe this, I have a bridge to sell you. There is a poll on this site that tells why most people think that the Dems earned such good results this cycle.
If anything, their loan forgiveness program backfired on them and (maybe) cost them votes. It certainly didn't do them any favors and CERTAINLY didn't "buy them the win".
More than anything, I think you can credit Roe V. Wade, Jan 6th, DJT, and Other Election Deniers for turning away people who would otherwise have voted red.
Let's see. By 2024, the new spiel will be "Elect democrats and we will abolish your car loan!" or "Elect democrats and we will slash your credit card payments!" or maybe "Elect democrats and we will reduce your mortgage!"
Has as about as much chance of happening as "We're going to build a wall and Mexico will pay for it!" or "We'll deport 12 million people!" or "Crooked Hillary will be prosecuted!"
Breaking campaign promises is nothing new for either party, but the Dems seem especially proficient at it. I'm sure that it was no accident that a couple months prior to the election, Biden and the Dems promised that student loans of up to $20k would be forgiven if they just sent Dem candidates to Congress. Oops , now that the election is over, it appears that Biden/Dems had no constitutional right at all to deliver on such promises even though they were told repeatedly that they couldn't do that. I'm sure that it was all just an innocent mistake and that the Dems had no idea that Biden couldn't wipe out student loan debt.
Now that the election is over and the deception of the students and former students has been successful, the Dems are planning on which lies they can tell prior to the 2024 election to obtain votes and keep their failed candidates in office.
A person might think that the students (and their parents) would be pi$$ed at the Dems for lying to them about the student loan forgiveness. But don't worry, they'll fall for the same or similar promises in 2024. Ballot cattle never seem to wise up. Rinse and repeat.
"About 40 million Americans with student debt are now in limbo following an appeals court's stay on Friday that put a halt — for now — to President Biden's student loan forgiveness program.
Already, 22 million people have applied to the program — designed to forgive as much as $20,000 in student debt per borrower — since the application went live earlier this month. But on Friday, the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals issued a temporary stay in response to an emergency motion brought by attorneys for several Republican-led states.
The ruling has prompted questions about what the stay means for borrowers — especially those who have already applied for debt relief — and what may happen next as legal challenges unfold. The court's roadblock may increase financial anxiety for borrowers especially as the student debt repayment hiatus, instituted during the pandemic, expires in December. That means repayments are set to begin again in January."
I am on disability, in 2020 Biden promised everybody on Social Security, SSDI, SSI a 200 buck a month raise. He wins the election and that promise just disappeared. Although a legislator puts something forward occasionally Biden himself did nothing to put it forward despite his promise. At the time all over the disability forums and other youtube financial advice content providers i follow(in particular clear value tax) people asked about it and expressed large amounts of anger at Biden for that lie. Yet 2022 comes along and ads start popping up(once again)how the Repubs want to steal your social security and end it. And people buy into it once again and vote Dem over that fear. In other words your average voter is ignorant, stupid and most importantly has a VERY SHORT MEMORY.
That's what the Dems thrive on... ignorant ballot cattle and short-term memories. It keeps the 20's something voters blindly hoping the promises are real this time and some of the 60's something voters scared that the mean ole Republicans are going to stop their Social Security checks. Sure wish these voters would wake up and smell the coffee, but unfortunately, I don't think that's likely to happen.
We all knew this would happen. They only waited a day after the election to announce, you're not getting your student loans paid for but thank you for your votes, idiots. The story quietly disappeared into the wind.
And, Pedo Joe just announced that they don’t have the votes to give everyone the right to kill, innocent unborn children.
Anyone that went to a US school knows that Congress holds the purse strings and is in charge of spending/forgiving...NOT the President and NOT by EO which, by the way, was never published in the Federal Register.
The WH knew it would not hold water but did it to garnish votes.
Very manipulative way of campaigning.
Pelosi even stated that in 2021..that the President does not have the authority.
But once he did it in 2022 she was utterly SILENT on the matter. She knew that as well.
And even with that manipulation she's outta there.
The GOP just won the House.
