I saw a couple of minutes of this speech and when he was asking the rich to pay more, his reason was so that it could help pay others who were “hurting.”. He said that this necessary steal was going to “have to come from somewhere.”. He is playing the zero sum economics BS.
He wants every last child to go to college. That means college will be 13th through 16th grades, taxpayer paid, and dumbed appropriately down. College used to be for the wealthy to learn about the world (history, literature, etc), or the very bright, to become scientists, lawyers, business leaders. Not everyone should be studying at that level. There are a lot of great jobs that people can do, great lives they can have.
He is ghastly.
Very boring and uninspired campaign speech. More class war fare, circa 1933
Roosevelt.
This rhetoric won’t attract middle America. This speech waspitched to his base the languishing ghetto class from the hood and trust fund liberals.
