  1. Why are most voters so ANGRY these days? Well Record food prices, CHECK, Record gas prices, CHECK, Record interest rates, CHECK, 33 TRILLION dollar deficit thanks to endless wasteful social spending, (giving everyone 2,000 NOT TO WORK!) CHECK. Record crime all over the country, thanks to cutting the police under Democratic mayors, CHECK! Out of control border letting in millions of ILLEGAL immigrants, CHECK No wonder the Dems nationwide are UNDER WATER with voters, (Biden is currently at 37% approval rating nationwide) and I say that as a former Democrat. JFK and Jimmy Carter would BOTH be ASHAMED of today's communist, woke, Democratic Party. NO THANKS. I hate Trump.but Bidenomics is KILLING this country!

  2. Republicans going to lose again

  3. I'd love a more in depth video on this. This was interesting stuff.
    Inversely, looking at liberal areas in steering conservative states would be awesome too.

  4. The "Reagan Revolution" is why we have Donald Trump in charge of the GOP today. One thing paved the way for the other.

  5. Please stop comparing Reagan’s legacy for any of their political views.

  6. (Daniel 9:27 was fulfilled on August 13 2023 also when the woman began travailing in birth to fulfill the time of the gentiles for the mystery of Revelation 12 to be completed, Daniel 12:1 next, three riders released within 2020 and 2023. These words are true and worthy, he who has ears to hear let him hear.)

    “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 3.

    “And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 8 to 11.

    “All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 8 to 10.

    “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 25 to 28.

    “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

    Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 16 to 18.

    “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”

    First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 3 to 6.

    “Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.”

    Acts, chapter 8, verse 22.

    “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

    Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 3.

    “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 4, verse 17.

    “After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.”

    Hosea, chapter 6, verse 2.

    “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”

    Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 8.

    “knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”

    Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 3 to 4.

    “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

    First Thessalonians chapter 5, verse 3.

    “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”

    First Thessalonians, chapter 4, verse 16 to 17.

    “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”

    First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 52.

    “I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 17, verse 34 to 36.

  7. PLATFORMING AND NORMALIZING THE FASCIST INSURRECTIONIST PARTY !!!
    just another regular election. Whistling “row row row your boat”

  8. After 3 disastrous years of Biden with record inflation, crime and illegal immigration, I question your sanity if you vote Democrat at all.

  9. Reagan deregulated virtually everything. Caused an arms race, unemployment, and 21% interest.

  10. Interviews in McCarthy district? These people have no idea about Reagan and the distruction he caused the beginning of the destruction if the American dream!

  11. Reagan the union buster fast tracked Murdoch to become an American citizen a devised his greedy trickle down economics BS for all those rich donor friends The Bedtime for Bonzo president

  12. Trump Thinks Jeb Bush because
    President of US. Someone needs
    to Sponsor his Dementia Meds. 🤪

  13. The scariest part about this video is how freaking clueless every person asked was about global events. These people really think inflation and gas prices, and the war in ukraine are bidens fault? As though the entire world isn’t going through the exact same thing?? Do these people have any ounce of understanding of what goes on outside America🤦‍♀️

  14. Reagan was responsible for increasing income disparity, and intensifying the “War on Drugs”, which was another failure.

  15. I think Democrats soft on crime policies will turn California away from voting Democrat.

  16. BIden can full it with his new voters 😂😂😂😂😂😂

  17. That’s a great idea. Bring Reaganomics back and finish off what remains of the middle class that he decimated.

  18. BIden can full it with his new voters 😂😂😂😂😂😂

  19. Biden's open border policy and Bidenomics are turning it red for the GOP.

  20. Reagan, ugh, just had a horrible flashback to trickle down crap. 😵‍💫

  21. Not Biden. Anyone else is fine.

  22. Anyone who is still thinking about voting for trump
    They need to seek help with the psychiatrist

  23. I sure as hell hope not… his regime screwed millions of Americans out of jobs sent over seas and froze wages for a tad over 40 years… while the uber rich only got richer…
    What the Republicans have done to hard working Americans should never be allowed again.

  24. Regan would be called a RINO today.

  25. Yooo the outro a lil glitchy!

  26. Reagan would not win today

  27. Not with Trump. Mr Trump lies and cheats at everything. He has given an oath of marriage to 3 different women and cheated on every one of them. It’s not even disputed. He laughed about it. His golf caddies call him Pele because he kicks the ball out of the rough and onto the fairway so often. He arranged for fake electors to declare him winner of an election when he didn’t have the votes. He sure as hell ain’t no Ronald Reagan.

  28. Biden impeachment inquiry tomorrow!

  29. Elizabeth Warren who has been vocal about the need to break up and regulate corporate monopolies in various industries, such as tech, agriculture, banking, and health care. She believes that these monopolies harm the economy, democracy, and consumers by stifling competition, innovation, and choice. She has proposed several plans and bills to address this issue, such as:
    The Ending Too Big to Jail Act, which would hold big bank executives accountable for financial crimes.
    The 21st Century Glass-Steagall Act, which would separate risky investment banking from traditional banking activities. The Anti-Corruption and Public Integrity Act, which would ban lawmakers from owning individual stocks and prevent lobbyists from influencing government decisions. The Accountable Capitalism Act, which would require large corporations to obtain a federal charter and consider the interests of all stakeholders, not just shareholders. The Break Up Big Tech Act, which would designate companies like Amazon, Google, and Facebook as platform utilities and prohibit them from owning and competing on the same platform. The Leveling the Playing Field for America’s Family Farmers Act, which would restore competition and innovation in the agriculture sector by breaking up agribusiness mergers, banning abusive contract practices, and strengthening antitrust enforcement.
    Warren has also called for more vigorous antitrust enforcement by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ), as well as by other federal agencies that have the authority to block anti-competitive deals in their areas of expertise. She has also supported the nomination of antitrust experts like Lina Khan and Jonathan Kanter to key positions in the Biden administration. Warren has said that the central question in America today is who government works for: the rich and the powerful or everyone else. She sees antitrust as one of the clearest ways to answer that question and to protect our economy and democracy from corporate monopolies.

  30. Whenever I see turning the country red I feel like the Soviet Union is coming. Some GOPs did learned a lot from the old Soviet (now Russia) and its pawns, like control women's bodies and ban books.
