    Passed student debt relief. You: “He didn’t want to do it!!!”

    Blocked by court. You: “see he didn’t want to do it!!!”

    Passes new bill. Continues to work on other ways to do it too. You: “see he never wanted to do it!! No real effort!!”

    Unbelievable.

      Biden does weakest method to do debt relief, then ignores it once courts block it

        He literally wrote new bills to get around the court block. Several afaik, at least one went through and some like above he won’t finish in time.

      Biden drug his feet as long as possible on doing anything then only made on single token the gesture because he knew the court would instantly undo it and then he could pretend he tried (a court he never supported reforming in any meaningful way, not coincidentally).

      If he actually gave a shit he could have ordered the debt discharged before courts had any opportunity to involve themselves, or could have at least tried multiple different orders (like how Trump was willing to do with his travel bans), but the fact is Biden never actually wanted to deal with student debt because he worked most of his career to build this system and thinks it’s a good way to keep young people from getting too uppity.

        That you think that’s how it works really shows me who I’m talking with. You have no idea how anything works.
