I'm an FDR democrat. I never voted for trump. Or for hitlery, or for biden.
What is biden doing to bring back FDR's economic game rules, which built the middle class, neocon culture warrior?
When Trump was president, I spent more time defending him than bashing him. I guess I'm about to do the same for Biden.
Biden has to play the game to get ANYTHING done. there is such entrenched power in Washington, in the deep state, that will oppose anything good Biden tries to do. There must be hard compromise with the devil to make even a slight improvement in a different area. For example, student loans forgiveness and ending the war on drugs, both issues I think are important.
If Biden tries to oppose the MIC, Israel, the corrupt Pharmaceuticals and their lobbyists, Private prison (slavery) profiteers, Mitch McConnell and every other villain in D.C. he will get nothing done. The only way to make painful, incremental progress is to make deals with the devil, and pick your battles. I don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. For a 89 yr old with multiple brain surgeries under his belt, I think Biden is doing a decent job and actually has some good intentions.
