Come on now, that’s not fair, he was also a segregationist and a homophobe.
Nah, the destruction of the US by trying to run for a second term will be his legacy.
biden’s been a political figure my entire life and i remember being terrified of him because of the anti-gay rhetoric he espoused for decades and for reaching out to THOROUGHLY despicable people to help them in their fight against progress in things like school de-segregation.
seeing him magically hailed as the most progressive presidential ally in history simply because of the toothless respect for marriage act and a pro-gay-marriage gaffe a decade earlier proved to me that political legacies are easily ignored and i expect that the gaza genocide will likewise be swept under the rug in the future like all american backed genocides usually are.
Joe Biden is the epitome of a Republican cosplaying as a Democrat.
I think it explains why they though going to the right was going to work even though it clearly didn’t in 2016.
