    I don’t get the people that are spending their time getting outraged at biden from the left. Like he’s not my guy, I know he’s not my guy, had a primary and lost. Not that I like the things he does… just didn’t expect to like the thing he does in the first place. Kids in cages? Privatizing medicare? Drill baby drill? Shitloads of money for cops n military? Yep that’s the guy that won. Theres no appetite for a primary so there’s really nothing to do about it. You can with hold your endorsement or your vote but he doesn’t care

        There are things other than the presidency you can focus on

          This is how you know our third parties are just grifts. If they were serious, they’d focus more on Congressional and state races.

      Bidens fucking effective. Give him enough senators and the house and he will make fundamental changes to voting rights and possibly the supreme court.

        I mean, I’ll grant that he’s been pretty effective, but let’s not forget the dude had both the House and Senate for the first two years of his term.

        Like, you can cry “but Manchin and Senema!” all you want, but are you really going to try and tell me Mitch McConnell wouldn’t have gotten those two motherfuckers in line?

        How many times do we have to hear this lie or other excuses?
