    How much progress do they think was possible in 4 years with an obstruction focused right?

    • saving the economy,
    • ukraine,
    • forgiving school loans,
    • rescheduling mj,
    • pardoned MJ incarcerated,
    • expanding healthcare,
    • cutting insulin costs (THIS SAVED SO MANY LIVES IT’S BONKERS),
    • stood up for unions & labor (FIRST PRESIDENT TO EVER WALK A PICKET LINE),
    • increased overtime for millions,
    • ended federally subsidized discriminatory mortgage lending,
    • went after airlines, cable companies, phone companies, concert ticket sales and hotels for their fucking ridiculous hidden fees!,
    • started a drone industry right here in the US so we won’t be caught like Russia is, developing new weapons while getting blown up;
    • restarted microchip and solar production IN THE US,
    • brought back net neutrality

    it’s the start, not the end - and saying these accomplishments are just silencing those to my left would be asinine; it’s not perfection, but it is progress and we can continue to build things further with the house, senate and executive - or we can throw it all away, burn the fucking 220+ year experiment down because ‘biden genocide’ - which was bibi genocide all along.

    I despise the clinton wing of the party and would prefer Bernie 8 days a week. Bernie said vote Biden, that should be good enough for anyone.

      Don’t forget, took climate change seriously for the first time a US politician has ever done that, and made a huge priority to pass a massive climate bill that is predicted to reduce emissions by 40% by 2030. It’s too late, but that’s not Biden’s fault, and he started working on it practically the instant he got in office.
