    Bullshit.

    Democrats had the oval office and a congressional supermajority.

    The Patriot Act still exists in full form. Citizens United still exists in full form. Gitmo is still operational. Roe v Wade has not been codified.

    In those years where we could have gotten universal Healthcare, they delivered everyone must pay for health insurance, employed or not.

    In those years, the Iraq War not only continued, but the US added arial drone warfare to the military industrial complex.

    When Obama spoke, he inspired, he lead, he made you feel something positive. He didn’t follow through on ANYTHING though.

    Biden got us out of Iraq. I think he botched the exit, but at least we got out of Iraq under his presidency. Then he decided to triple down on funding a genocide.

    I can name 3 democrats (and politicians in general for that fact) I still trust. Bernie Sanders, AOC (though the longer she is hanging out with the dogs, the more I fear she is hosting some fleas) and Katie Porter.

    The rest of em are Hilary progressives that are only concerned with cozying up with wall street insiders and lobbyist funders.

      Well, I see the Russian disinformation crew had joined us. Congratulations to lemmy for growing enough to become a target!

          There’s no point in refuting Republican talking points that were discredited thirteen years ago. The Democrats had their supermajority for a total of two weeks at the end of 2009. Not nearly enough time to pass anything and everything they wanted. That talking point is dead and buried and is more than enough evidence that I’m not dealing with someone arguing in good faith.

          Is that your intent as well? Sealion me so I waste my time rehashing old, dead arguments?

            Biden is funding a genocide. Wants to be given the power to do so closed door.

            New argument.

            Go. Tell me why this man is worthy of being my leader.

            You don’t get to reference Trump. Or Republicans in general.

            Why should I vote for a man fervently enabling genocide?
