Peter Griffin explains why he's voting Democratic. Thank you for attending his TED talk.

Peter Griffin explains why he's voting Democratic. Thank you for attending his TED talk. | Republicans' final campaign pitch boils down to two main issues: Crime and inflation. These are indeed serious issues, deserving of voters' sustained attention. But they are also complex, interlocking topics that can't be addressed with a single slogan. For example: actions meant to curb inflation run a risk of inducing an economic slowdown, job losses, and a recession. Biden's economy enjoys a historically low unemployment rate, which isn't widely known. The crime rate is also tied to wider issues and can't simply be solved with more policing, as Republicans would contend. It hasn't been shown that overfunding the police is helpful: throwing away money for military equipment they don't need, or for new officers who lack experience or aren't properly trained. The George Floyd murder reveaeled the risks that bad cops pose to citizens. Qualifications must remain in place. Policies must be heeded. There are no shortcuts to safety. Bottom-line, Republicans haven't offered detailed and workable plans on these issues, they're just planning to capitalize on voter anxiety. And since voters are anxious, it could be enough to work. But consider this. If they win, Republicans can swiftly implement less popular agenda items simply by having the votes. Look at their record in GOP states. They've taken away a woman's right to choose. They're banning books and gender-affirming care. They're allowing anyone who claims they belong to a religion to basically create their own rules, regardless of what the laws that govern the rest of society say. They're stripping away other civil rights protections that affect everyone, like making it harder to vote, and gerrymandering maps with surgical precision to water down votes for the other Party. And yet, in spite of all these downsides, red states are still *no better* than blue states at growing their economies or at stopping crime. As much as Republicans like to rail against "Democrat-run cities," our country's biggest economic engines are blue cities in blue states. And we haven't even mentioned the GOP's total denialism regarding the impending reality of climate change. So while the Republican agenda is unlikely to solve the top issues voters care about, it can absolutely succeed at these goals: Stomping on minorities, and entrenching the GOP's own power. | image tagged in peter griffin transparent,democratic party,midterms,2022,inflation,crime | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
