I’m sure republicans will get right on trying to give the people more benefits.
/s
I think voters are smart and can tell the difference between the party that would extend benefits if they could and the party that would have ended benefits way sooner if they could have.
You have more faith in the average American than any of us
Why would you think that? Large swathes of the country routinely vote against their own interests while blaming their problems on the party that would actually help them. And then they don’t choose to access realistic information that would help them make better decisions.
Your optimism is inspiring, but IMO misplaced 🙁 Here in Canada conservatives like to use the same trick election after election: they strip “safety net” bare all until ~6mo before election. Then they throw a few one-time cheques before election and… voila: all is forgotten and forgiven. Same here in reverse: any downfalls just before election would define voter behaviour, not the systemic view at ability to govern.
Would they? They had a majority everywhere and didn’t.
They didn’t? I mean, I guess not if you only watch Fox News.
Ah, the standard “everyone to my left is all the way to my right” argument.
Biden has done a lot of good but not nearly enough.
“Not nearly enough” for what?
Israel v Hamas (preventing indiscriminate bombing of civilians.)
Student loan forgiveness (should have froze payments indefinitely while trying every option.)
Investigating Epstein’s and accomplices. (he should revoke the agreement that protected all Epstein’s friends and brought everyone involved to justice.)
Pushed for single payer health care. (or at least created a buy in option for average Americans)
Investigation of the Judicial system and it’s pay to play corruption.
Denied all requests for oil prospecting on all federal land.
Requiring all police departments that receive federal money to raise standers for officers
Force the democratic party to push for a constitutional amendment protecting privacy. (this would ensure abortion, gay and interracial marriages, as roe v wade was overturned on the bases citizens don’t have a right to privacy when it comes to medical care ‘and marriage’)
Create a tax payer stipends to help with the cost of living.
I can go on and on but don’t have all day.
