Harold Ford Jr.: Instead of Singing Outside the Capitol, Dems Should Come up with a Tax Plan to Help Americans

EXCERPT:

FORD JR.: “So, Democrats, a message is needed. Why not develop a tax plan that Democrats support that maybe has no tax on tips, has better tax treatment for middle class America, better tax treatment for main street businesses in the country, as opposed to singing outside of the Capitol? Why not do this in a rural area or an urban area across the country? On border security, it's interesting, as we sit here tonight, Republicans in the House and Republicans in the Senate are in disagreement over what Mr. Homan wants and the president wants for border security money. They want $175 billion or $180 billion. Lindsey Graham was to give it to them, but Speaker Johnson can’t get the votes in the House. Highlight these differences as opposed to the nonsense that you are talking about. And judge, your lead in should be the thing that Democrats, if you are a coach, and you have them in the locker room, you put up on the wall, Joe Rogan, Joy Behar, they are in agreement. Why the heck can't we get an agreement on something to make the country better and stronger and make the middle class realize that we have a voice, not only a serious voice, but we have answers to their problems?"
