Legit, my stupid friends got mad at me for pointing this out the first time. Biden hasn’t held a regular job since the 70’s. His job was fundraising for politics. They picked him to run with Obama because he was the most milquetoast centrist available (which is literally a proponent of the police state in the US). He was a token, a skin tone balancer. Everyone’s buddy gaffin’ Joe.
These dynastic politico assholes are the problem. If you’ve spent your whole life in politics, you are deeply out of touch. You can’t possibly legislate properly if you haven’t been forced to engage with the job market for decades. Not even because you are good at your job, because incumbency is the thing that decides elections in MOST cases.
After Trump the first time, the Democrats had a real chance to clean shit up and seal the deal for GENERATIONS. They had a majority, they could passed a higher minimum wage (at least the 15 people have been protesting for since… 2000? 2010?), universal healthcare, taxes for billionaires, busting up monopolies, and everything else FDR would have agreed with without hesitation. SOMETHING, at least. A few years of this would have been amazing for our consumer economy, consumers are important.
But no, they’d rather humiliate everyone who voted for him; sure, he wasn’t as bad as Trump. Good job you shithead, how hard was that? Was your 50 years of experience not enough to know how to “beat the system”, all of the ins and outs? Where’s your wisdom, old man?
The entire last 10 years have been embarrassing to every American, in my opinion, bOtH sIdEs and all that
