      I mean, the article you mentioned name drops Biden a lot, but the only citation to anything related to him is just a quote from a speech. It feels like an AI wrote it, haha.

      Did he actually do anything meaningful to help the UPS negotiations?

      We can confirm he hasn’t done anything meaningful to change the minimum wage. He hasn’t done anything meaningful to make our health care system less predatory. He hasn’t done anything meaningful to stop the forced scarcity of the housing supply. Over his decades in Washington, he’s done a lot to help the prison industry keep its prisons full and to make student borrowers permanently indebted, and I’ll never get over how he promised $2000 checks if voters delivered Georgia. and then sent out $1400 checks (of our own money) instead.

      Apart from managing to cobble together a few pretty sentences (granted, a huge feat for a Biden) what has he done that helps the poor and middle class as a whole in any meaningful way?

      I guess we should just be excited that he keeps finding ways to send hundreds of billions of our tax dollars off to some other country’s war instead.

        Your statement represents a child’s perspective, it lacks any and all nuance. It almost demands a Harry Potter spell from a president to show a direct result that immediately follows a flash, a bang and a puff of smoke - that’s not how it works.

        It’s a trap to try to get someone to defend Biden with passion, but he’s far from a bad president. You show your ass multiple times in your statement though and it’s pretty clear where you stand generally. You’re not a serious person.
