Congressman Buddy Carter: 推进特朗普的议程对保持共和党发展势头至关重要,因为特朗普获得了7700万张选票的支持。 在未来100天内,国会需要通过并延长减税和就业法案,否则美国将面临历史上最高的税收增长。 由于通货膨胀的影响,现在增税是最糟糕的时机,因为民众生活成本很高,经济状况艰难。 特朗普需要国会的支持才能实现其竞选承诺,而众议院的多数席位微弱。 美国面临严重的债务问题,政府需要合作,提高债务上限,才能解决问题。 为了避免经济衰退,需要延续并使2017年特朗普政府实施的减税和就业法案永久化。 我提出的公平税法是一种消费税,它赋予纳税人控制权,并能取消国税局。公平税法鼓励储蓄,因为人们会在购买商品前更加谨慎地考虑。 为了解决药品定价问题,应该取消对药品福利管理机构(PBM)的税收,并提高透明度。 Armando Ibarra: 迈阿密的科技产业在过去五年中发展迅速,这得益于佛罗里达州良好的商业环境以及其他州(蓝州)的政策失误。 许多公司正在从纽约和加州迁往佛罗里达州,因为佛罗里达州的商业环境更好,税收更低,劳动力素质也更高。 拜登政府取消对古巴的制裁是为损害特朗普政府的利益,这激怒了古巴裔美国人社区。古巴政权不仅支持恐怖组织,还与美国的对手(如中国、伊朗和俄罗斯)保持危险的联盟,并威胁美国的国家安全和经济利益。 特朗普政府将对古巴采取强硬政策,这符合美国和古巴人民的利益。 鲁比奥参议员在确认听证会上展现了其对地缘政治格局的深刻理解,这对于美国恢复其国家利益和主权至关重要。 鲁比奥作为国务卿,将加强美国在拉丁美洲的影响力,并对抗中国的势力。中国正在试图取代美国在拉丁美洲的主导地位,并对美国的国家安全和经济利益构成威胁。 共和党在外交政策方面发生了转变,更加重视参与国际事务。 Ken LaCorte: 新闻周刊关于洛杉矶火灾的报道是错误的,因为洛杉矶大部分火灾是由无家可归者造成的。 共和党需要保持能力,改善民生,并控制党内极端保守派,才能保持发展势头。 特朗普正在有效地处理内部事务,并组建了一个强大的团队。 特朗普政府应该专注于实质性改革,而不理会媒体的负面报道。 现在的媒体缺乏政策深度,容易被利用。 拜登的告别演说脱离现实,充满幻想。
