    I think it’s a very understandable failure from Biden as I personally don’t believe stuffing the Supreme Court would be a reasonable approach, additionally Biden couldn’t tell that Democrats would get swept in the midterms when he was elected.

    That all said, Biden very much ran on abortion (in a “I’ll fix it” way - not just “Trump will ban it nationally”) so it is a promise he made that he couldn’t keep. Do I blame Biden for the shortfall? No. Do I think Biden shouldn’t have implied he’d reinstate abortion rights? Yes.

    Anyways, come November I’m voting for Biden because otherwise Trump will absolutely, guaranteed, murder women through denying reasonable healthcare.

      Thank you. It’s fair to hold Biden accountable for what he’s done and not done, but we must always remember the alternative is Trump, and if you think Biden is bad, you must have forgot the utter and complete shitshow 2017 through 2020 was.
