Taking credit for copying the actions of trump is not an accomplishment.


You're confused. He took some of Trump's ideas and actually got it done. Never send a negro or a tangerine to do the job of someone who got Corn Pop to stand down.

I think you are thinking of the Free masons

Listen man

when I was 13, youngin, open mind, stupid.. you know.. like you right now... I figured it all out okay. I went through the stages "round table" "aliens" "Free Masons" "Rothchilds" all of it

I went through it all man

I know 9/11 was planned and bullshit. I know that for a fact. I know the US government was involved. I know why. I know Kennedy was assassinated by the government. I know the US let their own Pearl Harbour be destroyed I know the US let the ship go into german waters to kill all those civilians I know the US fucks with Venezuela we all know this bro you arent special for thinking about it.

you see what happens is after years of trying to tell everyone that the world is a sham, all while wisening up to knowing ones place in the world... I just stopped, and decided to live my life. I am a pleb everyone is a fucking plebv. if you are using the internet with power that you dont create and a connection that you pay for, you are a pleb okay. So you dont get to have the 'gotcha' moments and you think you are smarter and wiser and know all this bullshit taht everyone else walks around their useless lives living and not fighting against the machine... becuase you dont realize that a lot of thsoe people walking already went through what you are going through... okay. so please. Just grow up, no one cares that you think aliens are here to collect the gold. no one cares that you think the rothchilds run a child rape ring and control the world via dead baby blood. no one cares bro. just accept that you know literally nothing. thats the best thing to do. then you can move forward and maybe not think that painting your points of view all across your sig and every post you make matters or at least realize no one gives a shit.


I give a shit.
You should to.
Once enough do we can change it all.
There is still goodness in this world and it is worth fighting for.

People are ignoring this request because you should know how to use Google. He's passed an INSANE amount of legislation and fulfilled many promises. I really don't understand how you haven't heard of the infrastructure bill, COVID stimulus checks, etc. but those were pretty explicit campaign promises. IMO, the biggest fulfillment is getting rid of the law that prevents Medicare for negotiating drug prices. That will save the government billions and I'm glad to finally see someone more fiscally conservative in the WH.


The first round of covid stimulus was inevitable. The second round was a mistake which supercharged inflation. The infrastructure bill contains maybe 10% of what he promised on the campaign trail and 5% or so of what the progressives in his party wanted. The terms "lowest common denominator" or "minimal compromise" are fitting. Medicare will only negotiate prices for a very limited set of drugs, for a limited set of beneficiaries, starting in 2025 or so.

I guess he did "deliver" on his promise to end the war in Afghanistan. The withdrawal was carried out in the most haphazard, damaging, incompetent and embarrassing fashion imaginable and amounted to an unconditional surrender to the Taliban, but it's technically a promise kept.

Bro he reversed trump’s decision and waited a year or so to do it himself. Don’t give people so much credit they are literally trying to rewrite history.

Don’t forget how many people instantly went back to not being able to afford insulin in February 2021.

The argument isn't whether or not progressives are happy or if it's good policy. The argument that you made was that Biden hasn't accomplished any of his promises. That's obviously false.

How are you calculating 10% of what Biden promised in terms of infrastructure? Perhaps you have Biden confused with that socialist fuck Bernie Sanders that you adore. Here is what I pulled from Biden's campaign website:

Infrastructure: Create millions of good, union jobs rebuilding America’s crumbling infrastructure – from roads and bridges to green spaces and water systems to electricity grids and universal broadband – to lay a new foundation for sustainable growth, compete in the global economy, withstand the impacts of climate change, and improve public health, including access to clean air and clean water. Given that the above is 60 words, you probably think that Biden accomplished "Create crumbling roads and water systems."

Look, I get it. You hate Biden even more than Ghot does. However, you can't allow that to cloud your judgment. If I can point out Hussein Obama's accomplishments and give him credit when he deserves it, surely you can do the same for the greatest Democratic President since LBJ.

Let’s not forget what he has done that wasn’t a promise. I.e. record high gas prices and inflation

I don't even hate Biden, I'm just not on board with this phony, manufactured hype train which is clearly being pushed in recent weeks because it's campaign season.

Anyway, the bipartisan infrastructure bill and the IRA both fall almost comically short of the goals set out in this laundry list of goals from his campaign website. Even leaders from his own party say so, lol.
Doesn't mean these bill necessarily go in the wrong direction, but to me, they're textbook examples of overpromise and underdeliver.

The point from this list which might be satisfied the most might actually be "compete in the global economy". I think in hindsight, the CHIPS Act will prove to be a crucial piece of legislation. So that's one kept promise/significant legislative output to Biden's credit. Truth be told, I should have thought of the CHIPS Act earlier.
