A guy who dropped out of the presidential race? Same guy who was president for four years and a Senator for 40 without doing it?

So we’re really doubling down on “Biden’s awful for not doing the thing that he actually did do!”? bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefing-roo...

So we're really calling a proposal that wasn't implemented "the thing he actually did do"? I'll give you "campaigned on", although the fact that he didn't propose it until on the way out the door works against you here.

are you really using the white houses press release to prove that they did the things they said they'd do? lmao, no wonder the dems feel like they should not have to convince anyone of anything if this is how their base is

He still governed to the left of most Social Democrats here in Europe. Joining a picket line, forgiving student debt, speaking out for trans rights, lowering health care cost. I wish I'd had a government doing things like that in my country in, heck, my adult life so far.
