Biden was against so many things that dems wanted, like single payer health care and medicare for all, and he directly enabled a far right genocide of innocents when 87% of dems (at one point anyway) did not. He also pretty openly sucked off the rich. He could have fixed our broken racist classist justice system and he went the wrong way entirely on that. He was against expanding the supreme court and now look where thats led. Straight to a sweep of every single lever of power and the stage set on his watch for very possibly the end of the republic.
Doing a bunch of unpopular things and then running again when he should have known he was both too unpopular and too medically incapabale to win essentially knifed every Dem right in the back.
I wouldnt bet on history being kind to Biden. I guess I could send you a much longer list of ways he was a terrible senator and a terrible president and deserved his low approvals, but whats it matter anymore?
If there were any reality where Dems had enough votes for single payer then he as president absolutely would have signed it into law with no hesitation.
You’re basically speaking in tongues about choices people did not make in alternate dimensions.
And you’re pretending the president couldnt have worked toward it, and that the only thing he can do is whats handed to him on a silver platter with all the votes ready to go. That thing he is missing is called leadership. The president is supposed to be the leader of the party and is supposed to push forward the party platform, not wait in his chair like a noble waiting to be handed a message that he has won something.
He didnt even try to work toward it. We needed a leader and we got a right leaning dealmaker with a lifelong fear of criticism from the right and a fetish for making republicans happy and feeling like he’s on his own side and who cares what his partys platform is.
They literally couldn’t have. There have been more GOP than DNC for his entire term. Independents and VP were enough to be a tiebreaker and give majority leader, but they still didn’t have enough votes because the USA citizens repeatedly keep choosing not to fix things.
