Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Do you have a list? Aside from trying student loan forgiveness, empowering unions (after kicking the rail union in the dick), and pushing Ukraine aid, I haven't seen anything spectacular, though I may have missed it.
Abortion still needs addressed federally, corps are killing us with prices and blaming inflation or covid, congress is still insider trading, and right now they're all collectively sucking Israel's dick.
I'll still vote biden but I'm gonna fucking complain about it.
Why yes, I do:
Awesome, thanks!
Glad to help!
Here's a link to a promise tracker.
Tldr on the link is he's kept roughly a third of his promises so far, he's been stalled on roughly another third and he's working on another third. With a couple percentage points on promises he's had to compromise on and 1 promise broken.
Ahhh right, he'll just magically wave his wand and convince everyone to change how they feel.
Your statement really sums it up. Despite these wins while working with a batshit insane GOP Biden has not done enough.
I'm not trying to knock on you personally. I just think the he should be doing more is a bit of a dream vs pragmatic reality.
Bro, if Biden sleeps in the oval office for 4 years the nets effects of that are going to be bettee than what Trump will do. Do people have such a short memory to not remember the shitshow Trump generated?
Some of them don't see it as a shit show and the majority of the rest seem to be too hyper focused on perfect and don't understand what will happen if Trump or another maggat who is coherent wins.
I'm not sure I've said otherwise?
He wants to be FDR. He claims to be like FDR. That's what it means to be FDR. Doing more.
I'm legitimately asking because I don't know what else he's done. But yes, if those are the only 3 things he accomplished in 3 years, that's not much to boast of. I don't think that's the case, but you're basically saying "fascism is going to win but at least he tried."
Gotcha, I was getting shit from other folks so I was defensive.
