Incredible story: Ohio steel plant where JD Vance's grandfather worked is getting money from the govt to keep afloat and move to clean power, supporting thousands of jobs and stop polluting the community. So of course, Vance and Trump want to cut off the funds. www.politico.com/news/2024/08...

The steel plant that saved Vance's family from poverty is getting $500M from Biden. One worker says that ‘doesn't really change anything’

The Biden administration grant aims to transform the mill from one of the dirtiest in the country to one of the cleanest.

“Experts and analysts say there are several reasons the Biden administration’s spending hasn’t resonated more broadly. Poor political messaging is one. Entrenched political partisanship is another.” That “poor political messaging” may also have been anti-Biden media not helping get the message out.

The article kind of highlights how central ignorance is to the GOP’s future. “I don’t care that one party saved me from desperate poverty, the orange rapist will let me say the N word…”

This I believe is what you call "a communication challenge." Dems suck so bad at signing their checks it's not even funny.

He's as stupid and short-sighted as he is sexist and weird.

Really an amazing story of how government can work to improve people's lives and how Republicans are desperate to stop that at any cost.

The fact that Tim Ryan couldn’t construct a campaign to beat this clown is insane.
