<p>You should go ahead and read the arguments they lay out.

You can disagree, but they at least make compelling arguments that forces one to think.</p>

<p>I wouldn't be the one to ask about the details, but I think it would be foolish to surmise that two companies taking up 3/4ths of a sector shouldn't go through some anti-trust scrutiny.</p>

<p>You think one of the biggest issues for being pro-family is that Silicon Valley requires people to be vaccinated? You don't think it's a cost of living problem, but rather a policy disagreement?</p>

<p>> If your change is no more durable than a single election, you didn't accomplish shit.<p>That is the way that the country works! The system is working as intended if a single government appointment can't unilaterally destroy monopolies in a single term.</p>

<p>> The Biden admin barely, kind of, got anti-trust authorities somewhat working again, and that will be demolished on day 1 of Trump.<p>You are grossly underselling the work of Lina Khan and the FTC.</p>

<p>In what world is the Democratic party moving to the right on economic issues?<p>1. Tax breaks for first time home buyers
2. Tax breaks for families with a new born
3. Pondering an unrealized capital gains tax<p>> pontificate on gender-affirming care
This is such a hackneyed point and it surprises me that this is something anyone considers. We should be able to walk and chew gum at the same time. Trans issues should not be difficult to 'pontificate' on. There is gender affirming health care for trans individuals, Democrats broadly support those individuals having access to that care. Democrats are also the party that is aggressive on healthcare and supporting government programs for reducing healthcare costs.<p>In all seriousness, do trans issues actually impact your day to day in any way? Trans people seem to live rent free in people's minds and I only ever hear about it in a political scenario. It seems like the most manufactured issue aside from immigration in recent memory.</p>

<p>They impeached him. Counter to Republican's rhetoric, the Democrats can't force the DOJ to press charges in a timely manner, but the DOJ eventually also pursued charges. So they attempted to fix this with:<p>1. Impeachment
2. Congressional Acts
3. Independent action from the Department of Justice
4. Individual states attempted to get him off their ballots for treason<p>How about you describe what they should have done?</p>
