It’s based on the quote he said where he said he “created stories”
"If I have to create stories so that the American media actually has to pay attention to the suffering of American people, then that’s what I’m going to do,” said Vance, a U.S. Senator representing Ohio
“Rejected”
Agenda 47 (styled by the Trump campaign as Agenda47) is the manifesto of the Republican Party presidential candidate Donald Trump,
[…]
In 2023, Trump campaign officials acknowledged the Project 2025 aligned well with Agenda 47
[…]
Agenda 47 and Project 2025 share many themes and policies, including expanding presidential power such as through reissuing Schedule F,[15]: min.00:14 [16] cuts to the Department of Education, mass deportations of illegal immigrants,[17] the death penalty for drug dealers, and using the US National Guard in liberal cities with high crime rates or those that are “disorderly”.[18][19][20]
There already sort of is one in the US for candidates who exceed a certain threshold of the vote. It comes with spending limits that could be exceeded by a lot by raising money outside it, so parties stopped taking it. Plus tax payers have to opt into doing it, and the rates of people doing so have dropped over time
If you’ve ever filed US income taxes and seen the question
“Do you want $3 of your federal tax to go to the Presidential Election Campaign Fund”
That’s what it’s referring to
I think you forgot a zero there or added an extra one to the dollar amount. 47 million / 600 thousand = $78.3333 per person
Average is much more reasonable
* the biggest reason being that the Supreme Court overturned a prior law to stop super pacs from having unlimited spending in Citizen United. Sure, maybe Congress could pass the same law again only for the court to overturn it 6-3
You have to fix the Supreme Court for that. It’d be difficult to regulate spending in primaries either because money is “free speech” according to them
Before someone else mentions it:
Yes it would be better to not have a system that needs so much money, but until citizens united is overturned it unfortunately still matter. Plus there being more small donors is good news since it helps campaigns be less reliant on big money
No more presidential debates, but there’s still the VP debate unless JD Vance backs out (which he might)
Couldn’t even commit to the “concepts of a plan” for a second debate
Let’s extend that. Vote, get active, get involved
I’m sure their “concepts of a plan” had it really all thought out
*Trump said he had a “concept of a plan” for replacing Obama care (i.e he has no plan)
For the lazy
Not mentioned in the article, but Trafalgar, who is notorious for heavily skewing republican is also saying voters think Harris won the debate by a large margin
During the debate, he doubled down on his full page ad calling for the execution of the central park five. Despite everything since then that’s come out strongly showing they were innocent
It’s why we must always fight these battles rather than just giving in to doom. Battles that seem hopeless can sometimes surprise you
I want to know what media you were watching that didn’t highten every biden stutter when that man has had a stutter his entire life
Removing the minimum wage exception to tips does help with that. Part of the reason why tips are inventived
Plus taxes on tips as they exist already has quite a number of assumptions that tipping will always exist. For instance, assumptions of a minimum 8% tip rate for reporting. Which will be withheld from pay from at least that assumption (which you can get back if you earn less by filling)
And to clarify, she is also calling for an overall increased minimum wage at the same time
