Biden's total inability to respond to Trump's points substantively killed him

Date: June 28th, 2024 8:34 PM Author: frum station Stuttering and deathbed voice aside, even I could respond to the 'Social Security being overwhelmed with immigrants' argument: immigrants are only entitled to benefits after having contributed the same amounts that citizens have, since they're younger they're part of what's propping the entire system up, you're only attacking immigrants because YOU want to destroy social security, etc. Instead he goes off on some vague tangent about how good immigrants are for the economy. Biden's substantive performance was just embarrassing + sad. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5547428&forum_id=2\u0026mark_id=5310443",#47790692) |

What should biden's counter have been to the argument that illegals overwhelm the hospital system, using valuable services and forcing everyone else to pay higher prices to subsidize them? Are they "propping up" the hospitals too? |

Date: June 28th, 2024 10:02 PM Author: frum station The idea is that it's not a ponzi scheme because the population will always grow. Obviously this is flame, but social security is a 3rd rail and not even Trump would counterargue in that respect.
re: hospitals, he could have argued that by giving them work authorization, he's giving them an opportunity to secure jobs that must provide health insurance due to the ACA, therefore propping up the hospital system and funding all of this emergency care. That would shift the blame onto Rs for refusing immigration reform and force Trump to take the position that none of those people should be here anyway, which Biden could then counter that Rs certainly want them there because they won't agree to common-sense immigration reform and didn't even agree to his generous border bill w no path to citizenship, which Trump would respond to with it was a poison pill, etc etc. |

Date: June 28th, 2024 10:03 PM Author: frum station I'm referring to Reasonable Middle Class Swing Voters who actually get affected by soundbites like 'social security is being given away to illegals'.
This way he could have lost maybe 10% better than he actually did. |

Date: June 29th, 2024 12:29 AM Author: Passionate whorehouse scourge upon the earth TRUMP: And he caused the inflation. He’s blaming inflation. And he’s right, it’s been very bad. He caused the inflation and it’s killing black families and Hispanic families and just about everybody. It’s killing people. They can’t buy groceries anymore. They can’t.
You look at the cost of food where it’s doubled and tripled and quadrupled. They can’t live. They’re not living anymore. He caused this inflation.
I gave him a country with no, essentially no inflation. It was perfect. It was so good. All he had to do is leave it alone. He destroyed it with his green new scam and all of the other – all this money that’s being thrown out the window.
He caused inflation. As sure as you’re sitting there, the fact is that his big kill on the black people is the millions of people that he’s allowed to come in through the border. They’re taking black jobs now and it could be 18. It could be 19 and even 20 million people. They’re taking black jobs and they’re taking Hispanic jobs and you haven’t seen it yet, but you’re going to see something that’s going to be the worst in our history. |
