We all voted for Biden even though we KNEW he would be worthless but that's who was forced on us...and then for four years he ABSOLUTELY REFUSED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE to do his Number One Job of defending the US against domestic terrorism and insurrection.
ABSOLUTE REFUSAL.
And then his successor campaigns as a GWB acolyte and gives vague, rambling non-answers to very simple questions while telling the constituency to go fuck themselves.
You figure it out
even though we KNEW he would be worthless
Lol. So many people who paid absolutely no attention to his accomplishments as president crying online about how he did nothing.
So frustrating to people who actually paid attention. Guy was the most progressive president in pretty much all of our lives.
Could he have done more? Sure. And he should have. But for you to come on here and post that he was worthless is a condemnation of you, not Biden.
But yes. Blame the party that always respects the Constitution and has a voting history proving they regularly support the middle/lower classes while ignoring the party that regularly takes a shit on the Constitution, supports literal traitors, and only votes in favor of the wealthy.
His main accomplishment unfortunately was handing the presidency to Trump.
If he had followed through on his promise to be a one term president, and encouraged a primary I think its very likely we'd be in a different place now.
Desperately holding onto power until 3 months before the election doomed us to the reality we're in now.
You can't cling to the current Dem establishment and also expect them to handle Trump and maga. They can't and they won't-- it's been 10 years.
Maga is organized and motivated, we need to organize and motivate the rest of the country, it's very hard to get motivated around neocon candidates.
Every election since Trump 1 has been the same thing: quietly accept the inadequacies of the Democratic party and let maga walk all over the country while you watch half of the country get swept away by misinformation. People are exhausted trying to wait it out. If we are going to fix this country we need to seize control now, not waiting for the next election cycle.
Even when Democrats are in power, they still don't do anything hardly at all. I have voted Democrat for a long time now, but what we really need to do is get rid of First Past the Post voting in America, as it would really light a fire under them to be effective or be replaced.

They get plenty done. They just don't get everything YOU want done.
Do yourself a favor and Google Biden's accomplishments as president. He actually got a lot of good shit done. But Democrats are always held to a higher standard, so people like to pretend they didn't do anything because they expect them to do everything.
If democrats cared about the country, they would back Ranked Choice voting.
Too bad they fucking harpooned it in Colorado. Democrats and Republicans campaigned against it and killed the initiative. Neither party wants it because it pulls power away from both of them.
We do, but democrats have not had effective comprehensive power to overcome typical republican bullshittery in decades.
No, they have had power but they have absolutely shitty leaders who defend capital above all else.
Look at Jeffries right now....do you think McConnell ever said "oh well, what can we do?...we have no leverage. We're not gonna bother swinging at every pitch."?
And Schumer...JFC what a milquetoast fucking wimp. Doesn't fight ANYTHING; just wants to hold votes to "get (GOP) on the record" as obstructionists. What a fucking pussy.
Republicans purged 3.5 million voters likely to vote Democrat from rolls in 2024.
It's a legitimate question.
