Remember when he was promising to increase taxes on anyone making $400,000 or more? At the first opportunity (the first debate) the media started attacking only him (BTW completely ignoring trump) until he suspended his campaign.
Harris took over, but notice that that promise disappeared.
Harris wanted to raise taxes on those making 400,000 just like biden, it didn’t disappear at all. She also talked about introducing an unrealized gains tax on those with gains worth more than 100 million. You can’t say she didn’t want to increase taxes on the rich unless you ignore her policy proposals.
While I don’t know about this particular promise, Harris’s campaign progressively dropped or watered down economic policy promises as the election got closer. I can’t find the source, but there was an article here after the election with data on this.
I do remember that. But I also remember he was president for 3 years prior to that promise, and a whole year afterwards, and he made no move to action that.
Biden wasn’t a bad president, but he wasn’t a great one either.
Disorganized is doing a lot of work there. It really comes down to the fact that they just don’t get quite enough votes to get much done. You can call the Senate seat from West Virginia “fractured”, which is technically true, but that seat was a miracle in the first place.
People keep wanting to blame “the Democrats” when the same exact thing happens to Republicans. But it doesn’t matter, because voters expect something from the Dems when they have 49-51 seats. When Republicans are in the same position, they just have to stop the Dems. They couldn’t even repeal the ACA. Did that matter? Did they get called “fractured” for not delivering on that campaign promise? What about The Wall? Isn’t that supposed to be ten feet higher by now?
Democrats have to deliver the moon. Republicans just have to prevent Democrats from getting to the moon. Somehow that makes them “more effective” in the eyes of the voters.

The problem with republicans is that they’re actively evil.
The problem with democrats is that they’re too disorganised and fractured to actually follow through on their plans.
Trump could make a political promise that all americans will be forced to eat his turds unless they pay a 1 million dollar yearly fine.
That bill would pass, because they’re united on everything, and their only goal is others suffering.
Biden could make a promise that all americans will pay an extra $1 yearly tax to fund a way to solve homelessness in major cities.
Bidens plan wouldn’t pass, because democrats would bicker how the fine details would work, meanwhile, we still have to eat trumps daily turds.

Perfect is the enemy of good
Remember when the establishment kept repeating he was the greatest President in history
No I literally don’t remember that.
