Horse shit.
To the point where it's clear it's a waste of time to list all the things the Biden admin has accomplished or all the good policies they stand for. You would just claim they are not important or didn't happen to the same degree.
But truly I'm happy for you that you are in a position to be able to think only the macro level and ignore all the real positive change because it just doesn't affect you. Congrats.
Infrastructure bill, climate bills (even though he's also given more fossil fuel approvals than Trump and oil companies are making nearly 3x profit under him), OTC birth control... what else?
High inflation & high interest rates & high government spending on war.
I would support a candidate that would
A) reduce cost of living
B) raise wages
C) enact immigration reform
D) stop funding endless war
Right now neither candidate promises any of those items. Those 4 items would make a massive difference to virtually everyone in this country.
I couldn't care less about trans bathrooms. Sure, they deserve respect and equality and all that jazz. But I'm sure they would also like a good paying job and being able to comfortably afford their rent and groceries a lot more than kids being allowed to go to drag shows.
Don't you see how they've successfully managed to trick everyone into accepting these BS culture war issues as some sort of substitution for real meaningful change? They have their boot on your neck and you're happy about it.
We're accelerating downhill, I think there's only a few years left before another big war
No really I'm happy for you. Might want to read up on actual policies and accomplishments, but whatevs.
Good luck under Trump.
I named his biggest accomplishments. There's a reason he's more unpopular than Trump, an already deeply unpopular president.
We are fucked as a country but I'll be fine.
Exactly.
So you give up pretending Biden has any other accomplishments?
I don't understand what even to say to people who think bombing brown people is OK as long as the plane flying it has a pride flag.
Not at all. I gave up pretending you had anything of substance to say.
You can stop pretending anytime. Go ahead and do the research. Maybe you assume you're right and don't know. Maybe you know you're wrong and your pride doesn't allow you to admit.
Who knows
