Yeah, like, what do people expect? Of course they’ll do good things to get re-elected. That’s literally how this works! I don’t get the people who argue “it’s just for getting votes”. Yes, that’s how it works.

Motherfucker did this in 2020. Yeah, it’s cool, but as a former president said, fool me once, can’t fool me again

Because they hold things until election years, they also do performative bills that look good, or wait to progress good bills until a bill that hurts the working class comes up so that it'll be more palatable in the short term even though we're getting screwed in the long term.
