Dems Reveal their Plan following Passge of Trump's Bill
2025-07-04
[Epoch Times] Democratic leaders and union officials are preparing to make the Republican-backed budget bill—which passed the House on July 3 and was sent to President Donald Trump to be signed—a centerpiece of their 2026 midterm strategy. They plan to use it to draw contrasts with Trump and the GOP-controlled Congress.

"This is the most unpopular bill in over a half a century," DNC Chair Ken Martin said during a press call on July 3. "A wide majority of Americans do not support what’s in this bill—and as a result, it would be malfeasance of us if we weren’t talking about this nonstop over the course of the next year and a half—and that’s what we’re going to do. We’re going to continue to hang this bill around the necks of all of these Republicans who voted for this disastrous bill, because they’re voting against their constituents."

"There’s no such thing as a low‑information voter anymore," Martin said. "Where people are gathering, particularly in those digital spaces, they’re all receiving lots of information. One of the challenges for the Democratic ecosystem is making sure we’re in those spaces, communicating constantly—and making sure they understand what exactly is and isn’t in this bill and how it’s going to impact their communities, their families’ lives, and their state."
On the other hand ...
"Today, the House has passed generational legislation that permanently lowers taxes for families and job creators, secures the border, unleashes American energy dominance, restores peace through strength, reduces spending more than any other bill ever has, and makes government more efficient and effective for all Americans," the statement said.

"It should never be forgotten that every single House Democrat voted against all of it—proving once again that they support tax hikes on their constituents, open borders, runaway government spending, and Medicaid for able-bodied adults who can work but choose not to. The One Big Beautiful Bill now heads to the President’s desk for his signature, and all hard-working Americans should know—this bill is for you."

#3  Trump has been making progress without any legislation to back up his agenda. Only dummies would bet against DJT at this point.
