Holey big government. Here's a few of the 20 new government offices she plans to open:

"A “Green Marshall Plan” that “includes a new federal office dedicated to selling American-made clean, renewable, and emission-free energy technology abroad and a $100 billion commitment to assisting countries to purchase and deploy this technology."

"A “labor and environmental enforcement division under the United States Trade Representative,” which would be tasked with ensuring countries the U.S. trades with engage in sustainable environmental practices. "

"A newly created Department of Economic Development which would replace the Commerce Department and subsume the Small Business Administration and the Patent and Trademark Office. It would run a Small Business Equality Fund dedicated to boosting “black, Latinx, and Native American” small business owners; produce National Jobs Strategies every four years; and oversee trade authorities like the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative. "

" A "Permanent, Cabinet-Level White House Council on Native American Affairs” like the council that was established under Obama but has "gone dead" under Trump because it was not permanent. "

"A "New White House Budgetary Office of Tribal Affairs” within the OMB with potentially “a director’s office level Tribal officer,” to "track and advance government-wide progress" in dealings with Native Americans.

Well, at least she's looking after her native American heritage. pow wow chow anyone?:lamo

Warren will never be president, but at least Democrats have policy agendas, unlike Trump.

Trump's is - well, IDK. He already claims the wall is built, or being built. The republican agenda is essentially "Get rid of anything FDR did."

There are no ideas coming out of the right wing other than "cut taxes."

He's going to run on his accomplishments.

So the republicans, as I've always said, have no ideas.

Got it!

I definitely know what to NOT vote for.

Dang, and I thought you were a sure GOP voter. I'm heart broken.

The Department of Homeland Security called for you to talk about rank conservative hypocrisy. Declined to leave any message.
 
"...Small Business Equality Fund dedicated to boosting “black, Latinx, and Native American” small business owners..."

Latinx? Is this another stoopid roll-your-own-gender thing? Are they aware that noun gender is baked right into the Spanish language?

That single word is enough to not ever vote for Warren.

GOP wants great economy....low unemployment....no more wars....DC swamp drained of idiots like Comey McCabe Strzok Brennan Clapper

Yes... They are aware... That's the point of the term.

"Latino" generally refers to the entire community, but is a male-gendered pronoun. "Latina" refers to women. "Latinx" is gender-neutral.

There isn't really one single good term for these diverse communities, by the way. Lots of people of South and Central American descent dislike "Hispanic," soe are fine with "Latino," some prefer "Latinx."

I see no reason to dislike someone who uses "Latinx," as long as the people referred to by the term do not find it insulting.

No viable policies at all. So what are you talking about?

The strangest thing about presidential politics is that most campaign 'promises' are based on drafting legislation and getting it passed through both the House and the Senate which is not a presidential power.

'Latinx' is not a word. And many in the Latin American community (see, there's a gender neutral term) do find it offensive.

It's amazing how the answer proposed by Democrats to everything is to spend money.

Got that right. Trump's only imperative is to undo decades of social progress or at least maintain the status quo. No affirmative proposals necessary.
 
He's going to run on his accomplishments.

But aren't most campaign ads 30 seconds long? What's he going to say for the other 25 seconds?
 
"...Small Business Equality Fund dedicated to boosting “black, Latinx, and Native American” small business owners..."

That single word is enough to not ever vote for Warren.

While the word "latino" does linguistically include males and females, the word "Latinx" is a qualifier for "small business owners". Since that group includes individuals, it's more politically correct to say Latino/Latina than simply Latino. Latinx, while rather obnoxious is not any different than when I type "s/he" to allow for a singular subject to be either gender.
 
So the republicans, as I've always said, have no ideas.

The idea is Government gets out of the way and we are free to control our own lives

Trump couldn't even get the money to build his wall when it was offered to him. He's not exactly a legislator, a team player, nor any shadow of an effective leader. I don't know why Pence is equally inept. He doesn't really have an excuse except that his boss is a sociopath.

'Some prefer "Latinx"'? Try 'virtually none'.

Survey: Only 2% of Hispanics Prefer the Politically Correct Term 'Latinx'

"Despite its usage by academics and cultural influencers, 98% of Latinos prefer other terms to describe their ethnicity."

Again, this is a nonsense narrative, you know it and so do I. Moreover, no policy ideas. None.

That's all the Republicans have period. There are no ideas at all.

Correct but leadership is getting the job done with what you have. The Republicans essentially run on no policy ideas and all emotional appeals to social issues while hiding the pro business economic agenda they champion, which hurts workers.

Warren currently has a US Senate seat thus has the ability to write and submit proposed legislation.
