Covid response
American rescue plan (1.9 trillion)
Infrastructure investment and Jobs Act (1.2 trillion)
Climate Change - Rejoined Paris Agreement
American Families Plan and Social Policy (significant education, childcare, and healthcare investment)
Foreign Policy - ended the war in Afghanistan (no big deal I guess lmfao)
Elected first black woman into Supreme Court (social change for a class of oppressed minorities who still have not received reparations btw)
Should I keep going or
Not being Trump also should be on the accomplishments
Disagree. Because literally anyone but trump can do that.
Hey, don’t take my greatest accomplishment away
Hey, good job at doing it.
Wow way to just shit on Ron Desantis’s dreams like that.
It’s kind of dumb that Biden gets to be a great president just for erasing some of the mess Trump made. I miss the days when we were actually talking about things like better healthcare, meaningful gun legislation, and education, not back to basic human fucking rights.
When he’s being actively undermined by Republicans the whole way, just cleaning up Trump’s mess can be an accomplishment. The Inflation Reduction Act went against heavily entrenched interests to restart the US federal government’s response to climate change. It took real finesse to get that through Congress.
That’s kind of bullshit. With a divided government, Biden has managed to do more than most of his recent predecessors, much with bipartisan support. I didn’t expect much from him when I voted -was more of a “not Trump” thing - but I have to give him credit, he’s done a lot. Even just the infrastructure bill is a big deal, with positive impacts in several needed areas. The inflation reduction act is pretty major, too.
I by no means said or implied he was great for having accomplishments.
Taking a shit and showering every day is a good accomplishment but it doesn’t make me great.
Not trying to disparage this list, but we all know the Paris Agreement is bullshit, and not a single country is on pace to meet it, despite signing it.
FYI, the biggest thing Biden had done for climate change is indefinitely halt approvals for LNG export terminals in the US, this headline went completely under most people’s radar (Biden did a trash job of even trying to make a big deal out of it) but environmental activists and experts like Bill Mckibben say this is actually a massive deal. Decades of investment won’t be put into export terminals and so the incentive to keep going down the LNG road becomes significantly less attractive for energy companies.
results, though?
Yeah… and look at how that turned out.
Yeah I guess the only option would’ve been to continue funding a war we had no fucking business being in the first place thanks to ANOTHER Republican president.
I’m sure the girls who got to go to school would appreciate it.
Now there’s no hope for them except as obedient wives.
You just like saying words together don’t you
You don’t like what’s being said so you pretend it doesn’t make sense.
I don’t expect more from you.
Perhaps people telling you they’re confused actually mean they’re confused.
Not everything is a grand conspiracy. Toodles.
Yeah, but that’s not the case here.
I wasn’t born yesterday :P
