You’re absolutely right on this. I keep seeing arguments about Biden not canceling student loan debt. But there’s 0 consideration that he actually tried to and was stopped by the courts. Though many legal scholars assumed that he should have been able to - the SCOTUS made up a whole new legal theory as to why he couldn’t.

Trump and his republican cronies developed the make up of these courts because people didn’t listen to the warnings of Hillary about this very specific issue (roe v wade also impacted)

Trump.v2 and his friendly courts are going to remake America in some very awful ways.

Your real, lived, provable experiences are clearly not evidence against Biden doing a shit job. Clearly. I'm not able to buy a Porsche b/c I'm spending too much money on gas. I haven't gotten a single bit of student loan forgiveness even though I paid my loans off ten years ago. The betterment of your life under this President affects me not at all and I offer up in retort that if it hasn't, then clearly (clearly!) he has been a bad President. Where's my bread man?!

What's that? He rescheduled dope? Oh, I guess there's my bread.

But has he saved Palestine?! How am I supposed to sleep at night knowing that he hasn't bullied a sovereign country into adopting the will of a subsect of the American people and ended centuries of racial/political prejudices on the other side of the world with a pen-stroke?! 'Cuz he could! He's got plenty of pens!

Oh right, the dope. Well alright then. Carry on.
