A new set of Times/Siena polls, including one with The Philadelphia Inquirer, reveal an erosion of support for the president among young and nonwhite voters upset about the economy and Gaza.
It’s not. The incremental change is vastly different with Biden and Trump. Biden has made tons of big and small changes that no one remembers because all the focus is on Gaza and Ukraine and Trump.
This is completely tone deaf to the things that Biden HAS been able to accomplish. I’d encourage you to research his presidency before you accept and parrot all of the bad things you hear.
To name just a few:
Unprecedented student loan debt relief
Improvements to Medicare including the ability to negotiate drug prices and capping prices of certain medications like insulin
Extremely low unemployment, just a few short years after the pandemic
Pardoning of minor federal marijuana convictions and initiated the process of having marijuana rescheduled
A push to make birth control pills available OTC without a prescription in the wake of conservative attacks on reproductive health rights
Renewed focus on infrastructure spending
Policies friendly to green energy
And that’s not mentioning the things that could have happened were it not for constant obstruction of Republicans - specifically, efforts to better protect our borders and efforts to curb gun violence.
The president is not a king or autocrat no matter how much Trump and Republicans might disagree. His policy decisions must be focused in order to make any progress at all. He can’t simply wave his hand and make everything a magical utopia.
So before you continue complaining about the lack of progress, I implore you: take ten minutes to do some Google searches about the things that are important to you and the reasons why more progress is not being made. You might be surprised at weary you learn.
It is critically important that we do not give up ground and backslide because the conservative media machine is so powerful that it makes it seem like nothing good has happened.
That individual likely isn’t going to reply. Assume maliciousness before ignorance. That said, please keep replying like this. We don’t know how big our impacts are though hopefully we are able to change a mind and correct the bad narrative trying to take hold.
The only problem is that it’s an incremental change for the worse. No matter which geriatric asshole you vote for.
