Republicans - desperate to hold on to relevance, so they’re going for short-term wins
Democrats - desperate to appeal to younger generations, and promoting the wants and needs of minorities seems to be working
I don’t see either as caring too much for longer term stability. Democrats want to raise/eliminate the debt limit (i.e. more social programs), and Republicans want to use the debt limit for political concessions (i.e. appeal to base with lip-service to fiscal responsibility), neither seems particularly worried about balancing the budget.
What makes you think the democracts have any interest in the “younger generation?” The average age of democrat leadership is OLDER then republicans. Voter turn out among the younger generation is also abysmal because the dem do not appeal to the younger generation at all.
Eh, I see it this way:
