1.) close the border

He's lying, he didn't do that as president, plus his sanctions on Venezuela caused the migrant crisis.

2.) sanctions againt Iran, Russia, China

He's lying, he lifted sanctions on Russia.

3.) no tax on tips

That would be good, but considering everything Trump did when president was based on hurting the workers, this is probably another lie.

4.) no tax on social security payments

See previous.

5.) cut wasteful spending

Such as?

6.) ramp up our military

We already spend more on our military than any other country and it ain't even close.

7.) pick the most qualified candidates, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, or religious beliefs

He literally picked JD Vance as his running mate. Plus, look how many of the people from his last administration are either in prison, or they won't support Trump after seeing him in office first hand. No line has come back to bite Trump like "only the best people."

8.) lower the cost of gas and energy through his "drill baby drill" philosophy

We're actually producing more oil under Biden than Trump. So if this is important to you, vote Harris.

9.) create jobs

Other than Herbert Hoover, no president has lost more jobs than Trump.

10.) lower inflation.

How? What specific policies did Trump propose that would do this?

5.) cut wasteful spending

Such as?

You know, reproductive healthcare because women and children don't matter. Gender related healthcare because who needs mental health with all those guns around? And of course education because he loves the poorly educated.

@NerdyPotato When Republicans talk about "small government," they mean cuts to anything that helps the working-class.

NerdyPotato · M

@BohemianBabe it's not wrong, just a little misleading maybe. They don't want government involved in big things that affect everyone like the economy, climate, education, encouraging people to contribute to society, etc. They only want government to control small things that don't matter to anyone else, like what people do in their own bedroom, what's in their pants, what bathroom they use, etc.

BohemianBabe · M

@NerdyPotato They want government subsidies for corporations, which is "big government" getting involved in the economy. They also bail out rich people on a level that keeps them rich.
TBH, I think terms like "small government" and "big government" don't really mean anything, they're just buzzwords.

NerdyPotato · M

@BohemianBabe the implications certainly don't match what the buzzwords are supposed to mean.
