3. On the states
That list can go on and on. Poorest, highest crime, shortest lifespans, worst economies, least free, worst education systems, worst health care. The red states are a mess. Democrats have done a poor job pointing this out while Republicans have made sport of hammering California for cost of living and Chicago for crime.

When will Dems start saying, look at Mississippi, Alabama, West Virginia, and Louisiana for Republican policies do to people? Much of the South is like 3rd world countries, Dems have too much class to point this out, maybe they need to start playing to win.

I am guessing nothing on that list is remotely  true?

Of course not. The left is renowned for cherry-picking numbers with their crayons and spout fallacious talking points.

Depends on who you ask and how they spin the numbers.  Interestingly enough, Newspeak called this one mostly false back in 2022.

There is an element of truth to the claim that Obama and Clinton indeed achieved deficit reduction during their respective tenures as president. But the question of fiscal responsibility has to factor in growth rates, and when the deficit figures are linked to the GDP, the result shows several other presidents over the past 50 years did so too. Additionally, while Biden's planned budget could add him to that crowd on paper, it is simply a projection that is subject to changes from Congress and unforeseen off-budget expenses. We therefore rate the claim as mostly false.

This is a hilarious excuse for journalism from the article

Newsweek has reached out to Occupy Democrats for confirmation of the meme's origin, and comment on the underlying claims.

Reaching out to a FB group to confirm a meme.   :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:  Guess there may be hope for the DUmp to be called up to the big leagues.

While dem states may have the lowest crime RATES...they have the highest raw crime numbers too.

They just hide them using 'rates', just like they do with gun death numbers.

Only because they practice "Catch and Release" exclusively there. Can't count it as a crime if you don't charge it as one.
