Republicans pursue phony culture war while offering no solutions to real problems.

This is exactly what is going on today. Neither side is offering solutions to the problems and the nonsense goes on continually because both parties are trying so hard to prove that the other cannot govern.

Nah bra, I have to differ with you here. The Dems have a good record of accomplishments over the last 2+ years. And before Biden, Obama got a healthcare bill across the finish line where others had tried and failed. Republicans, on the other hand, have made a career of obstruction. So you're half right.

Maybe the other side should stop creating the other problems too.

The national debt increased more under Trump than under any other president in US history. It increased 25% in only 4 years!

@Flyingsaucesir I never said that was right either.

@CourtJester The debt isn't the only issue where Republicans either did nothing or made it worse. Take infrastructure. Under Trump, every other week was "infrastructure week." But with Republican majorities in both houses of Congress, and the presidency, not a single infrastructure bill was passed. Instead, Republicans tried to repeal the Affordable Care Act, while having NO plan for insuring the 14 million Americans who would have been stripped of health insurance. Biden has strengthened the ACA and made it possible for MORE Americans to have health insurance. Then there's climate. Oh boy. Bush 2 was a serious climate science denier rolling back environmental protections across the board. Then under Obama, we finally started to make progress investing in green technology and strengthening the EPA. The along came Trump, who rolled back the protections and de-funded the EPA. Biden has shored up the damage and made new investments in green technologies (which is also a job creating policy). As for crime, Republican statistics are not good. As we suffer through an epidemic of mass shootings, the Repubican response is to loosen gun laws and flood the streets with more and deadlier guns. By a wide margin, America leads the developed world in gun homicides. And Republican-led states lead the nation in crimes involving guns.
