Sure…thats why the major automakers workers are striking, because its so wonderful under biden. And gas is over $5 a gallon

thats why the major automakers workers are striking, because its so wonderful under biden.

Biden has very little to do with that. Those are the executives and shareholders of those automakers. Dems have tried to increase benefits for employees. It's mostly a no-go at the federal level.

The fact that Biden can't fix things is not a good look for Biden, it's a bad look for electoralism.

And why is that? Well, because there are a few democrats who are soft-to-shit on that, and an entire fucking party whose whole deal is "Let them eat cake" at best. And somehow this is always the democrats fault. Always.

Any democratic president is supposed to just be magic at forcing anything they want to happen.

Kinda like Trump did for the entire conservative agenda? But now that Democrats are in office, they're expected to play nice? If you don't see how much irreperable damage Trump did to our democracy and how it'll only continue to be abused by the minority MAGA crowd until Democrats willingly cede all power, I don't know what to tell you.
