The Problem with Flip Floppers

In a representative democracy, candidates present what they stand for, and then the voters choose who they think will best represent voter best interests. Does tax and spend sound good. Or does a secure border sound good.

But the whole basis of the democratic process is nullified if the candidates simply say what their internal polling says the majority wants, and then when elected ignore the campaign statements and rule according to their secret agenda.

This attack on democracy strategy is revealed when candidates reverse their positions to claim they hold the position that is polling best.

For example, first I was against fracking, but now I am for fracking.

Or first I wanted better enforcement of taxes on tips, but now I am for no taxes on tips.

Or first I carried a weapon in war, but now I carried no weapon in war. I misspoke.

 

First, the border is secure, but now the border needs to be fixed.

Obviously the deceivers seek to say whatever the polling indicates a majority of voters want. If the polls say Mr Biden is losing, why Mr. Biden is no longer sharp and vibrant, but now is enfeebled.

And so the wholesale attack on democracy continues unabated.

 

Once Bribe-O-nomics was akin to motherhood and apple pie, now its persona non grata.

What is next? Build the Wall, put tariffs on China, or give Ukraine offensive weapons?

Anyone who trusts what the Democrats say has a very very short memory.

 

Lets see:
What countries have single payer, health care for all? Candida, North Korea, Cuba. Does anyone actually think their health care even comes close to what is provided in the USA. So if not, we know why a flip flopper would say they want it then but now not so much.

 

Elitists think they need to mandate the dos and don'ts for the people.
1) Ban private health insurance.
2) Ban fracking
3) Ban some kinds of rifles.
4) Ban off shore drilling
5) Replace ICE and make border crossing less of a crime.

But if polling says these are not too popular, then,

1) No longer supporting single payer health insurance.
2) Only ban fracking in limited areas
3) Stop the sale of some kinds of rifles but not require mandatory buyback.
4) Support an increase in funding for border enforcement.

Can the Democrats put enough lip stick on their policy pig to shield them being found to be flip floppers?
