He’s done what he could with the Republicans fighting him every step of the way. Better to spend this last month doing what he can to Trump-proof stuff.
Right right. That’s why he needed to start doing things 3.9 years ago instead of screwing around for so long. What a failure. Or a success, depending on your perspective.
Have you been living under a rock for 4 years? The fuck you mean he spent 3.9 years screwing around on this, you have no fucking clue what you are talking about. This is one of the things Biden pursued hardest in the face of ridiculous opposition. It went to the Supreme Court. Like two years ago.
Yeah I read the news, I still read the news. And all of it was him doing very little. When he predictably didn’t get what he hoped for, he apparently had no backup plan. It seemed like he was doing everything low key, low energy, no PR campaign. Amateur hour.
Now we can blame some of that on mainstream media having bad coverage. But that aspect was entirely predictable. He’s a pro, decades of experience, he should have had some plan for that.
Biden had the same challenges Obama did when Obama had his terms. Republicans got in the way. But Obama was still dealing with moderate and crazy but tamed Republicans who still sided with Bush at the time and propped McCain and Romney to oppose him.
Biden was going up against a more insane breed of Republicans who’ve gotten a nice dosage of the first 4 years with Trump, who’ve turned the country upside down and all around. Everything was going to be an uphill battle moreso than Obama’s struggle was.
I read that withdrawing the student loans was actually one of the things. If he hadn’t Trump could have used the years long progress to implement his own policies. Now he would have to restart the process over again to make any changes.
He just appointed a bunch of federal judges this week.
He has also just made a new international climate agreement. It can probably be thrown out but it’s another thing that would cause a delay. Nothing is going to make anything Trump proof since he controls 3 branches of government and is immune to crimes. It’s all stall tactics.
Biden is terrible at marketing the stuff he does. He doesn’t do enough and the things he does actually do just gets pushed through without any press. He also publicly shows no fight when things are blocked so it looks like he never even attempted. Still runs things like an old time senator expecting nonbiased journalists to spread the word for him.

I don’t see that. If he had just nutted up to SCOTUS, pulled a Jackson and just said “well shit, here’s the thing. MY copy of the law says nothing about large-scale forgiveness or loan modification being the purview of Congress, so I’m just gonna have the DoEd go ahead and discharge all those loans. If YOU want to tell them that they still owe that cash, go right on ahead”, I think that would’ve created a HELL of a lot bigger headache had Trump won - now instead of simply having to tell people “well too bad you have to start paying again”, you have to do a LOT more work to notify people that “hey your loans that were forgiven two years ago, we want that money back” and generate a LOT more political ill will in the process.
I thought the supreme Court already ruled on that saying he didn’t have the authority? I remember that the lower courts ordered him to halt and not pay out prior to that, while they had just started accepting applications.
The negotiated rulemaking plan B attempt was different.
It’s all a mess like everything else in Government. Next year is going to bankrupt people when payments have to resume. Then there are tariffs and trade wars and whatever else. Hope we will be ok.

I dont think he was doing what he could. He could have done a lot more.
Hey now, he really needed all those years to mull it over, just to make sure it aged like milk.

And this is why Trump won. Because people like YOU. Just because YOU didn’t pay attention for 4 years, doesn’t mean he sat on his ass doing nothing.
I hope reality hits you like a truck now.

Okay, so what is he doing to Trump proof stuff?
Pardoning Hunter and projecting an air of general, but aloof concern.
He could use his “official acts” granted by the Supreme Circus to rid us once and for all of this turbulent turd. But he won’t.

Incredibly accurate assessment.
