Democrats Just Let the Child Tax Credit Lapse.
They are trying to lose.
Democrats are blowing it.
At this point the ineptitude and unwillingness or inability to do even the bare minimum for their voters is becoming so brazen I’m not sure even their most ardent of supporters could honestly deny it. It seems as though we are hearing new stories about their decisions to “shelve” yet another campaign promise multiple times a week, and it’s difficult to listen to their increasingly pathetic excuses without coming to the conclusion that they may as well be actively trying to lose. Among the campaign promises they ran on and proceeded to abandon was making the child tax credit permanent, except now we’ve learned not only are they refusing to make it permanent, it’s set to lapse imminently.
Ah yes, the very same child tax credit that lifted 3 million children out of poverty. Nothing says a winning strategy for the party that supposedly represents the left quite like allowing those 3 million children to slip back into poverty.
We should be absolutely embarrassed.
I’m getting tired of saying that Democratic lawmakers deserve the historic loss they have coming in 2022 and 2024. I get no joy in the thought of the Republican Party retaking control for at the very least the next decade, and having that time…
