So Cornel gets point for trying but Biden doesn't, even when Biden got the bill to a point where the parliamentarian had to step in.
If Biden had just been honest about how he planned to govern during the primary and general I would respect that. If during the BLM protest in the summer of 2020 he had been giving his fund the police speech at campaign stops I would have respected it.But rather he was going around kneeling in black churches calling for police reform. If he had said he would use his power as president to stop unions from striking I would respect that.If he had said he would cut spending for the poor and middle class and restart student loan payments while increasing military spending and allowing all the trump tax cuts to stay in place in budget negotiations with The GOP I would respect that.If he had said healthcare would be as much a priority to him as it was to Bush and Trump I would respect that. But rather than being honest he ran as far to the left as Bernie.If he had been honest progs and blacks would have to decide if they want to accept a centrist president to stop the GOP.Since he lied so much they have to decide if they can vote for a snake that has been lying,betraying and stabbing them in the back since he started his campaign.Imo it will be a bigger prog and black revolt than 2000 and 2016.Progs and blacks didn't really hate Gore and Hillary,just didnt feel it was worth it voting for moderate Dems.We fucking hate Biden,and there is a Green Party candidate we like and respect and enthusiastic to vote for .Im looking forward to voting for Dr West more than I was Obama 2008.
Biden cut spending for poor and middle class? Isn't his student loan forgiveness in front of the Supreme Court? Trump tax cuts don't expire for another year. There are so much information gap in your post, reading too much Jacobinmag. Bernie Sanders says Biden governed more left than he campaigned, you are saying the opposite by cherry picking and misrepresenting issues. Who should we believe.
We know when a politician actually supports and tried to get something passed.we know Biden didn't try to pass any of the progressive promises he made.Biden was a centrist Senator his entire career and was glad he had Manchin and Senima to take the heat for all his broken promises.
Why wouldn't a politician support passing a populist bill? He hates his approval rating going up among his base? What is his sinister agenda? Why did he raise minimum wage for federal employees if he hates minimum wage so much. You make no sense.
Biden has been against populist bills his entire Senate career. Bidens minimum wage for federal employees only affected 66,000 out of millions of federal workers.Bullshit so he can say he kept his min wage promise.
Yes,the cuts in the debt limit deal hits the poor,middle class and elderly. When The SC strikes down student loan forgiveness will he try again with The Higher Education Act or give up? We both know the answer to that.
