40.8% looks good. There has to be motivation to become rich.

If Biden was so anti-immigration, why did he permit so many illegal migrants that Governor Abbott of Texas bused them to sanctuary cities?

Biden let illegal migrants flood across the border. One of Trump's top attacks of Biden was that he wasn't controlling the border. Trump has secured the border so well that very few illegal migrants cross. If there are illegal migrants sleeping in the streets, ICE would surely notice and deport them.

Are you saying that El Salvador resembles the US more than Germany or Romania?

She's going to attract the voters that Harris attracted with the same result.

She is pretty and articulate, but her views will not appeal to most Americans. If she is the Democratic nominee for President, she would go up against J.D. Vance. Compare the two apart from their views and ask who would make a better impression. He is a White man. She is a Puerto Rican woman. He is married with children. She is married without children. He was in the US Marines. She was never in the military. He is 6'2". She is 5'4". Height will make a difference during a debate. Note that fashion models are tall.

Taxes are necessary but if they are too high it lessens the motivation to work. The purpose of working hard is to make money not give it away. If Russia conquers Ukraine, it will lead to more defense spending as the threat from Russia would increase. Giving the Sudetenland to Hitler didn't appease him.

The article said yes, and I agree. Securing the border is one reason Trump got elected.

No, they like some social programs such as Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid but things such as free education beyond high school and guaranteed minimum income will require high taxes.

There is Obamacare. 90% tax rate is too high. It would discourage people from becoming rich. Defense spending support jobs. The US exports weapons to other countries. Education is free up to high school. After that would require high taxes.

Actually, there are other parties in the US. There is the Green Party and the Libertarian Party. Some drugs such as fentanyl are deadly if misused.
