Though i admit he got a shitload done. War in Ukraine, genocide support in Gaza, amount of warmongering impressive even for US president, nuclear brinkmanship closer to 12 than ever, etc.
Entire thread is the cherry on top of dead, rotting, plagued horse carcass.
maybe they are referring to Build Back Better, which is when Biden declared COVID over and halted systematic testing/reporting, ended relief spending programs, unpaused student loans in exchange for a bill approving infrastructure spending that was cut in half immediately and ultimately tanked anyway by Joe “Mansion” Manchin.
i remember when all that was going down, some pretty light analysis of the BBB negotiations was that Joe’s team gave away everything to the republicans and the only thing the republicans seemed to allow was the student $10k-$20k student loan write off, making it so a lot of Joe’s political capital was riding on that initiative. i knew right then the reactionary court would kill it.
of course, when it was killed, Team Joe insisted they would have something else for us in its place. if the adjustment repayment plan is what they were referring to, it’s a joke.
these blue maga freaks are goldfish.
Also, even in the initial form the infrastructure bill was more “regular upkeep and expansion” than WPA 2.0. No one is going to get fired up by “we did the bare minimum of a functional state!”
