down. The spending cuts they want is to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Their claims are those spending measures created the Debt and America can no longer continue to afford it. What needs to be done is educating the people in those Red States about what actually created the Debt.

The Republicans use code to race bait with the majority of their rural districts by pretending those programs only applies to urban areas and Blue States with lots of minorities. I listened to the woman representing a red district in Tennessee making claims her constituents are calling for those cuts. This is a woman has millions of Dollars and no interest in things that apply to her ordinary constituents. She is not serving her constituents at all. The only constituent she is serving is her purse. It is the same attitudes those in the South was fooled into fighting a War over slavery for wealthy plantation owners. She needs to be gotten rid of instead of complaining about a President because he is Black. It is the same issues with immigration. The Republicans take these issues and turn people against each other because they think someone is getting a free ride. The only person getting a free ride is her. Once you get rid of the Republican House, the better this country will be off. Quit blamming the Democrats and everybodyelse don't look like you. The real scoundrels are the Republican obstructionists in the House. And that applies to the gun issues also.
