PS.

I would for vote Kamala. I would vote for a cactus with sunglasses if it had the Democratic nomination. You would do yourself well to consider anything that is weaking the resolve of the anti-trump sentiment straight poison to your brain. We have only one job this novemeber and that is to stop trump. The Supreme Court has given him the status of king. Quit acting like your vote is sacred and start realizing your vote is your final cry before your rights are forfeited.

    How sustained are we talking? We ushered in the Biden presidency with a huge mandate in 2020, and snuffed out the alleged “red wave” in ‘22 due to republicans’ reprehensible views on denying women bodily autonomy.

    Biden and the establishment Dems have squandered this time by telling Americans who are suffering economically that the economy is doing great. That Biden is better than FDR, while our public infrastructure crumbles and our most popular social programs are at risk of closure.

    When should we expect the Democrats to actually do something meaningful that improves the vast majority of normal people’s lives?

      The Biden administration has been directly addressing that crumbling infrastructure with the largest federal infra investment in modern history. It just happens to be boring so the media doesn’t talk about it.

        Ok, so private contractors who are pals with Congress critters get massive checks from the taxpayers to maybe do something, but we won’t see any tangible improvements for at least a decade.

        What are they doing in particular? Shouldn’t Biden be making his case as part of his campaign for president? It seems that whenever he gets pressed for details, he just gets flippant and says he’s done more for the American people than FDR and we’re just too stupid to realize it. I’m just not seeing it. I do see a record amount of oil and gas drilling, asylum seekers still in cages while building more of Trump’s wall for him, massive arms sales to enrich military contractors and slaughter innocents in the middle east, and a seeming lack of interest in protecting voter rights and civil liberties. So to me, it seems nothing has changed with Biden from the neoliberal status quo over the last 25 years. Considering he’s over 80, that’s not a huge surprise. Is it the media’s job to advertise Biden’s accomplishments for him?
