For being “the most important election of our lives” (for the 50th time) and also “the end of democracy if Trump wins”, Biden should be going at 1,000% then
So he’s not telling you what you already know enough? I don’t get what you’re complaining about here.
All I hear are excuses why it’s too hard and how the all powerful Republicans block everything the Dems do
What “excuses”? You can go to the House and/or Senate website and look at the votes for any bill. There’s no excuses, just numbers.
Funny how Republicans get a lot of what they want even when Dems control things.
It’s really not, though. Dems are willing to compromise to get something done and R’s will bury their heels and won’t budge unless they get exactly what they want (and then demand more or just vote against their own bills because it might make the D’s look good). And that’s when R’s are even trying to do anything other than obstruct while saying “see? government doesn’t work”
With the former, we at least get something (even if it’s not perfect) and the latter gets us nothing (except tax cuts for the rich).
Then I look forward to Biden fighting for universal healthcare, legalizing marijuana, getting rid of for profit prisons, raising the minimum wage to at least $20, guaranteed housing for all, breaking up Amazon, and more.
Instead of constantly negging on the lesser of two evils and sowing apathy, you could try putting your efforts toward congressional candidates who could actually fix many of these problems.
We have no control over that. I’m in California. We tried to get somewhat Progressive Katie Porter to the Senate but corporate centrist Schiff, funded by right-wing AIPAC, was forced in.

Man, if the goalposts go any faster down the highway they’re going to get a speeding ticket.
These are things Sanders was running on in 2016, nearly a decade ago.
And?
Bernie’s not the nominee in 2024. Biden is.
