Can’t see other viewpoints

-

Recently, I posed a question as an accountant and asked how Trump’s policies benefitted anybody making under $400,000. Mr. Connor wrote several responses ranging from a secure border, low inflation, low gas, grocery prices, etc.

Mr. McGregor wrote, adding that “... everyone black, white, Latino, and in-between, had more money in their pocket ...”

Finally, O’Connor wrote: “The American people have had enough of the democrat party and their woke agenda as you will see on Tuesday and again in 2024. Can we all say red tsunami?”

What I meant to write was how Trump’s tax policies benefitted anybody making under $400,000. Trump’s tax law resulted in a decrease in federal revenue by $6.2 trillion over the first decade and raising the federal debt to at least $20.7 trillion by 2036: An Analysis Of Donald Trump Revised Tax Plan,” Tax Policy Center” Oct 2016.

Conservati­ves like O’Connor & McGregor always have false assumption­s about minorities. Many African Americans believe that Trump is a racist.

I am one of them. Trump said that he would never hire African American accountant­s due to laziness being a trait seen in blacks. Republican­s consistent­ly fail to talk about African Americans’ concerns.

Since Biden has been in office, several letters have been written about his performanc­e from high inflation to gas prices. Conservati­ve Republican­s like O’Connor believed in a “red tsunami” tidal wave that would place Republican­s in firm footing with the recent voting.

This failed to occur. Conservati­ves never took the time to find out viewpoints other than their own.

Other than continuing to criticize Biden, Republican­s failed to come up with solutions. How many Conservati­ve Republican­s are going to write in to acknowledg­e their failures?

There must be something that voters liked in Biden that they do not see with Republican­s.
