I told nikkas Biden, like Obama was useless...

[Ethnic Vagina Finder]

dems had the house and senate after Obama got elected just like Biden. And eventually, they lost those majorities.


It will happen again.

trump cut taxes for the rich from 35% to 21%. Biden said he was going to bump it to 28%, but will get finessed into only raising it to 25%. And that infrastructure bill is going to get chopped up like onions on a cutting board. $15 minimum wage.... nope


Progressives have been neutered to the point they are utterly useless.

corporations and the wealthy control the government and this is probably the most glaring example.

No lies told

voters only care about winning elections. They care about debates and news coverage but when it comes to actual issues, they are also clueless.

what democrats don’t understand is that bipartisanship is bullshyt. It’s a slur. When republicans have power, they go hard for the rich. When centrist Democrats have power, it’s no different.


Progressives are the true party for the working class, but because voters are conditioned to care about “electability”, their numbers are meaningless.

When you have a 50-50 Senate and a Dem Senate refusal to kill the fillbuster, your hands are tied. Joe Manchin is basically the legislative President of the United States.

Once Republicans won the House in 2010, Obama's legislative mission for the next 6 years of his Presidency was over. Especially when Republicans won the Senate in 2014 and controlled both chambers.

Bush did it in 2001, 2003 and trump did it in 2017 to pass his tax cut bill. And they all increased the deficit. Biden can do it, but he cares more about the bipartisan optics so he won’t. Obama didn’t do it either. Again, making both of them useless.

Biden signed $10k in stimulus payments for my fam, $7k in child care money on the way, and a good possibility of handing me $20k in student loan debt relief, he literally bought my vote from me

It's not the Democrats that don't understand, it's you. You still haven't figured out that Democrats vs. Republicans is the same as the Harlem Globetrotters vs. Washington Generals, at face value it looks like a real basketball game but when you look behind the curtain the winners and losers were known before anyone hit the court.

No shyt. Reconciliation means you need all 50 Dem Senate votes so that the VP can cast the tiebreaker vote and pass it. Which is why I said Joe Manchin is the legislative President of the United States. If he ain't down with something. It ain't happening.

the govt is just giving you your money back

welp

 

[Piff Perkins]

Manchin wants 25, not 28. That’s the end of that. Nothing to do with Biden.

Republicans won’t negotiate on good faith on infrastructure, at which points democrats will do reconciliation again. Not worried about that. This is a game to appease Manchin. Once it’s clear republicans are playing, he’ll have political cover to do the right thing and tell them to fukk off.

OP got ran out of HL and now he's tryna pass the shyt in here. He threw out "Reconciliation" like he just learned the word today. Manchin is a dino. He votes w/ the GOP 70% of the time. He can be bargained with to an extent but there are issues where he's only gonna move so far...

 

[Aintnobodystupid]

They control the senate but Manchin and Sinema are fukking things up. They gotta hold Warnocks seat and pickup Toomey's at a minimum to get rid of the filibuster. That's the only hope. This isnt on Biden.

But OBama raised taxes on the wealthy

so how is he useless in this context?

 

[Elim Garak]

Can't compare with Obama dems don't have filibuster proof majority.
