    Yes I know right?

    Marriage equality? Who needs it.

    Giving unions the biggest win/shot in the arm they’ve had in the last 50 to 75 years? Poppycock!

    Eliminating non compete agreements for most Americans? For fucks sake we don’t like competing!

    Forgiving $146 billion in student debt alone? Who are we kidding. Everyone knows debt is an asset. And that since I didn’t get any debt relief no one else should either!

    BIG / S ENERGY

    I’ll be real. There was only one candidate in the 2020 Democratic primary that I disliked more than biden. And that was culty gabbard. I voted for Bernie Sanders in the last two presidential primaries. Biden is so far from perfect or what we really need. But has still been astonishingly good on so many things. Granted in our current state that’s a low bar. But I honestly struggle to think what Sanders could have done in a meaningful sense that Biden has not. I’m sure Sanders would have spoken out against the violence in Palestine sooner. It would still be happening exactly as it is now. But he would have spoken out sooner. So that is a plus.

    But it really boggles the mind to try to comprehend how people can still be this uninformed. To think everything he touches turns to shit. No it just goes to prove the old adage. The left doesn’t need enemies with allies like the left.

      Biden tried to do more than he accomplished, but got shot down by right-wing courts and the two ‘moderates’ in Manchin and Sinema. You think Sanders could have done better, given what Biden faced?

        Nope. I literally said I couldn’t see Sanders doing much better really. I agree with everything you did.

        You realize it was Trump who was President during the worst of Covid, right? When a million Americans died and the survivors were fighting for toilet paper in grocery store parking lots?

        All Trump.

        Having world leaders laugh at him behind his back? Also Trump:

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
