You were corrected by someone else here, but I just wanted to say that I hate that because Democrats suck in many ways, they literally get no credit for what good they actually do and then because of that, equated to Republicans who are a billion times worse. Which leads to bullshit apathy and that leads to the present situation.

Another example everyone will conveniently forget is that the Biden administration did something that should've happened 25 years ago: they forced Ticketmaster to include fees in advertised prices. Yeah it's not the biggest accomplishment but they did fucking something positive, unlike Republicans.

The Biden administration also forced airlines to be better about refunds. Again, something that makes a small material difference in lives.

Presidents ought to be better but that doesn't give you license to be so mentally lazy that you discount literally every good thing done which falls short of your wishlist.
