Right right. That’s why he needed to start doing things 3.9 years ago instead of screwing around for so long. What a failure. Or a success, depending on your perspective.
I don’t know what the deal is with pulling this program now (although someone else said it was actually a way to block Trump from doing something worse), but he literally spent all four years trying to get through student loan forgiveness. His major plan was blocked by SCOTUS and he’s been blocked by other judges every step of the way.
And the fact that you don’t know that speaks much more about you than it does about him.
I have no love for Biden. I keep saying I hate that he’s been one of the best presidents of my nearly 50-year lifetime because that just shows the low the bar is. But he still did clear that bar on occasion and trying to do student loan forgiveness is one of them.
He can’t just make commands from on high and they get implemented, no questions asked. As Paddzr suggested, this is part of the reason why Trump won. People think the president is a dictator, which is why they elected a man promising to be a dictator.
I’m not so certain he was genuine in wanting to get that done, or at least to the extent. He’s one of the reasons student debt is so hard to discharge, and played a role in manufacturing the current crisis.
That’s not what I said. I said I’m not convinced how genuine he was in wanting to get it done. You can still do something you don’t genuinely want to do; that’s what half-assing something looks like.
Have you been living under a rock for 4 years? The fuck you mean he spent 3.9 years screwing around on this, you have no fucking clue what you are talking about. This is one of the things Biden pursued hardest in the face of ridiculous opposition. It went to the Supreme Court. Like two years ago.
Yeah I read the news, I still read the news. And all of it was him doing very little. When he predictably didn’t get what he hoped for, he apparently had no backup plan. It seemed like he was doing everything low key, low energy, no PR campaign. Amateur hour.
Now we can blame some of that on mainstream media having bad coverage. But that aspect was entirely predictable. He’s a pro, decades of experience, he should have had some plan for that.
Biden had the same challenges Obama did when Obama had his terms. Republicans got in the way. But Obama was still dealing with moderate and crazy but tamed Republicans who still sided with Bush at the time and propped McCain and Romney to oppose him.
Biden was going up against a more insane breed of Republicans who’ve gotten a nice dosage of the first 4 years with Trump, who’ve turned the country upside down and all around. Everything was going to be an uphill battle moreso than Obama’s struggle was.

He was literally doing it. I’m not sure how much more “genuine” you can be.
That’s not what I said. I said I’m not convinced how genuine he was in wanting to get it done. You can still do something you don’t genuinely want to do; that’s what half-assing something looks like.
I don’t really care if someone tries to do the right thing for the wrong reason.
Sure, neither do I, but optics matter in politics.
And this is why Trump won. Because people like YOU. Just because YOU didn’t pay attention for 4 years, doesn’t mean he sat on his ass doing nothing.
I hope reality hits you like a truck now.
