Strong disagree. I’ve found Biden to far, far exceed my expectations for him. I’ve been very happy with his presidency, above and beyond the fact that he’s not Trump.
That said, I’m curious which specific policies of his you disagree with. I have several, but I’d like to see yours.
Yeah I wouldn’t call him progressive by any reasonable definition of the word, but he’s helped pass some of the most consequential legislation of our lifetime, and he did it while pulling the economy out of a dumpster fire tailspin and into an improbable soft landing, and also getting us onto the other side of an actual plague. He’s been far more effective than I ever imagined he’d be. I didn’t vote for him in the 2020 primary, but I’ll damn sure vote to reelect him. My only point of contention is that I wish he’d dump Harris and organize a kind of VP primary to pick another running mate. If he dies in office, I worry that she’s just not up to the task.
Experience Experience Experience. We needed an adult. We needed someone to come in, clean up a bunch of messes by making some tough calls and not just waiting around for perfect. He’s greatly exceeded that imo.
good lord, how low were your expectations out of the gate?
Pretty fuckin’ low. But now I’ll enthusiastically vote for him again.
