I'm against wars too, but again just straight-up bribing people to vote for you is unethical. There are proper uses for tax dollars, such as libraries, repairing roads and bridges, the post office...basically anything that is for the good of all citizens is a proper use. Just grabbing money from one group and handing it to another group in exchange for their votes is not proper.
As for tax cuts, please explain how my tax cut takes money out of your pocket. If the government graciously allows me to keep a bit more of my own money, it was not a handout that you paid for.

What, you mean like Lord Dampnut's billionaire supporters are giving straight up cash rewards to swing voters?
Also, which party is it again that has passed an infrastructure bill in the last few decades?

Shrieking "Trump is Hitler!" for the 357,12
9th time will surely work THIS time.
We must play the Nazi card because we are getting desperate now...:(

Offering million dollar prizes to voters is not desperate?
Also, funny how the most damaging comments come from Lord Dampnut's hand-picked former staff.

Musk's silly lottery is quasi-legal because it's tied to just signing up to vote, not for proof they voted Republican. Whoever got the million dollars might have voted Dem for all he knows.
"passed an infrastructure bill" doesn't mean any infrastructure actually got done.

This is the other news coming down the pipe which makes the McDonalds story even more of a nothing burger by comparison.

As I've said Trump is not interested in politics, he doesn't know ANYTHING of politics.
Like *ZERO*
He's just interested in "being the president" 'cause he's a narcissistic ungrown child ('cause the american system kinda rewards that attitude as the classic
fake it until you make it)

That's the problem with GOP, everything the GOP does is not illegal but quasi-legal. It's how the party devolved (involved?) after Bush jr.

Trump has been interested in politics his whole life, and he's a master of populist-style politics.

If you offer the prizes to people who are more likely to vote Republican, say, by tying it to a petition concerning the second amendment, then it's blatantly partisan, though.
As for infrastructure, it has already been built and is being built right now:
