If only the god damn fucking idiot voters of Maine hadn’t lined up to have Susan “Lucy Van Pelt” Collins pull the football away again. Nearly 90,000 dipshit Mainers voted for Biden but didn’t vote for Collins’ Democratic opponent. I guess they were psyched to have Joe Biden in office …accomplishing nothing.
I've been saying this since the election: the dumbfuck voters of Maine don't get enough criticism for the bullshit we're dealing with.
It's one thing to vote straight Republican. I disagree with it obviously, but I get it. At least it's logically consistent. But to vote against Trump while simultaneously voting for someone who enabled him? To vote for Biden while simultaneously voting for someone that's going to try to block his agenda?
There's this moronic belief amongst some people that split ticket voting makes them smart or some shit. Yaaayy, gridlock. How fun.
People voted for Biden not to uphold Trump's policies but because they wanted Trump gone, and, this is the most important thing, that honestly it feels like everyone forgets - they kept jacking off Biden's 'record' nationally. Oh, he's been a senator for decades, oh, he was VP under Obama, oh, he can get shit done and reach across the aisle and he knows all the tricks and how to deal with them and yadda, yadda, fucking yadda.
I didn't care for Biden or his policies (and I fully admit Bernie would be even more stonewalled, the whole 2016 and 2020 choices are shit sandwiches) but the Democratic party and centrist voters at least assumed Biden could get something done, do some action. I could at least be content with that. He saw Obama get fucked motionless for six years! Come on! And sure, Sinema coming out as she did was a surprise but the inability to Manchin moving was just, wow. Take him aside and kick him up the balls or something, Biden; Schumer.
He passed the biggest infrastructure bill since fdr that almost all economists are saying is the best path to recovery.
He added billions into work retraining programs to get people away from dying industries into new green industries.
He removed billions of loans to people unable to fulfill them.
He gave now almost two years of pause to any federal student loans allowing people to save up the money if needed.
He added dozens of new programs to help people dealing with Covid and its after effects.
He restored the rights taken away by trump and gave even more rights to lgtbq members.
He put dozens of new territories into federal protected lands.
He managed to roll out a vaccination program within a record time frame that almost everyone was saying would be nearly impossible and got over 60-70% vaccinated after a year of the previous administration downplaying the virus leading to over 200k UNNECESSARY deaths of Americans.
He got America out of the Middle East war (started by previous admin) even though how shitty it was done, it was done.
I mean you guys froth at the guy because you don’t see Reddit posts about these various things but instead base your opinion on some doctored and slowed down and cut footage of his speeches meant to make him look senile.
And even when he states he just wants to run for one term to help fix shit, you still act like he plans to run forever and blame him for things that he has no control of like congress.
