Thank you for noticing. ::) No link(s) seemed necessary. But here you go: Pew Research, YouGov, Senate Democrats, The Week, etc.

That post is just a list democrat policies or campaign talking points, promises made or used by various candidates for office and suggestions from party leadership. Essentially, these are nothing more than sales pitches, which may or may not ever come to fruition should the candidates be elected.

Do these 2024 Republican policies and campaign promises seem familiar?

In 2024 when Republicans were campaigning for office, these were their talking points and campaign promises which were comprised from various sources by the American Presidency Project.

the 2024 Republican policy platform, titled "Make America Great Again!" was officially adopted in July 2024. It is characterized by its succinct, 20-point format and a significant shift toward the "America First" priorities of Donald Trump, often using his signature all-caps rhetorical style.


Core Policy Pillars
Immigration & Border Security: The platform prioritizes "sealing" the southern border, completing the border wall, and launching the "largest deportation program in American history". It also calls for reinstating the "Remain in Mexico" policy and a travel ban for certain countries.
Economy & Inflation: The party vows to "end inflation" by slashing federal spending, cutting "costly and burdensome" regulations, and making the Trump Tax Cuts (TCJA) permanent. A notable new proposal is the elimination of taxes on tips for service workers.
Energy: Republicans aim to make the U.S. the world's "dominant energy producer" by lifting restrictions on oil, natural gas, and nuclear power, while terminating the "socialist Green New Deal".
Trade: The platform shifts toward protectionism, supporting "baseline tariffs" on foreign-made goods and revoking China's Most Favored Nation status to secure strategic independence.


Social & Cultural Issues
Abortion: In a major shift, the platform softens its language, removing calls for a national ban and instead stating that the power to protect "life" has been returned to the states.
Education: Policies include closing the federal Department of Education, supporting "universal school choice," and defunding schools that teach "Critical Race Theory" or "gender ideology".
Gender & Sports: The platform pledges to "end left-wing gender insanity" by keeping men out of women’s sports and banning taxpayer funding for gender-reassignment surgeries.


National Security & Government Reform
Military: Plans include building a "great Iron Dome missile defense shield" over the entire country and "modernizing" the military through cutting-edge technology.
Government Efficiency: Republicans aim to "stop the weaponization of government" by declassifying records and firing "corrupt" employees.
Election Integrity: The platform calls for securing elections through mandatory voter ID, paper ballots, and proof of citizenship.

I was asked what the Democratic policy issues were and I provided a valid answer.

You, Dos and Chaos taking issue with where I may or may not have plagiarized the Democratic policy issues from while not discussing whether you agree or disagree with them is an obvious tactic of avoidance of the actual subject. This suggests that neither of you have anything of relative value to discuss or you would have done so.

What I posted is a summary of the Democratic policy issues which are based on the 2024 Democratic platform. This platform is updated every four years. For more detail on these policy issues, look it up yourselves. If I can find it, so can you. And, since this is of such importance to you, you can also easily find where I found exactly word for word what I posted.
All this bullshit just because you used ai and can't provide a link? ::)
Liar!!!!Filt!!!!

Just a few things that need an answer from the Democrats

It is not two years "out of date" because the Democratic (and Republican) conventions take place every four years. Both the Democratic and Republican Party adopt platforms during their conventions.

Apparently, you believe only Democrats must provide answers to loaded questions about your personal concerns. "What is good for the goose is good for the gander."

In the event you had not noticed there are events happening worldwide which are of greater concern to most people who are not so narrowly focused as you are.

My answers:

What have they to say about Men in women's sport's & spaces? At this time, nothing because I neither agree nor disagree with this which I see as a minor concern.

And child drugging/mutilation? Until you better define these two questions before I can give you a response. What category of drugs? What do you consider to be mutilation?

Informing parents of what's happening with their children in school? What is happening? Do you mean education and student performance? In my experience teachers are good at keeping parents informed about their children's educational progress. Unfortunately, too many parents seem rather uninterested in this, or they would take the time to attend parent teacher conferences.

Teaching/indoctrination of Queer type stuff - Having drag queens in school? Neither agree nor disagree. At no point as a parent, grandparent, and great-grandparent have I or my family nor during my 30-year employment for a school district witnessed what I think you mean by indoctrination or teaching of "queer type stuff." Also, I have zero experience with drag queens in school. However, whether I would agree or disagree would depend on why they are there.

Illegal immigrants? What's their policy? Given the ambiguity of your question. It is difficult to know what agreeing or disagreeing would mean. I believe when someone breaks the law, they should be afforded due process as defined in the U.S. Costitution, (rule of law). When determined by law to be in the country illegally, they should be deported. What is whose policy?

Politician corruption? I agree that corrupt politicians must dealt with. When it is determined a politician is politically or legally corrupt, they should be relieved of their position. This should apply from the top on down. No politician should be exempt or above the law, including the President.

Judges giving lenient sentences and/or letting dangerous criminals out (of prison)? I disagree. The punishment should fit the crime. Repeat offenders should be given stiffer sentences. The President's ability to pardon people who broke the law should be severely limited as opposed to what we have seen happen recently, wherein people seem to be pardoned on someone's whim. That someone often being the President.

Really & honestly why did you even bother to write that pathetic crap out.

And do stop trying to assume what I do & don't believe- as if you didn't know by now
I have Zero problem telling you or anyone else what I think & believe & I say it in straight
No nonsense talking.

Just look at your squirming non committal answers FFS just stop the political trash
Crap talking - Either answer like a grown man with commitment or don't bother at all.

I've already said I'm more than fed up with the pathetic answers.

You wish to ask me a direct question on what I think / believe I'll give you a no nonsense
Straight answer & you do the same.
Only of course you will not agree to do that.
