President Biden: My Legacy Is "I Kept My Word," "When I Said I Was Going To Do Something, I Did"
When he said he wasn't ever going to pardon his son, I knew that wasn't true, and so did he. There was no reason to lie, yes it's a political witch hunt, and the only reason they went after him is because of who he was, but he knew that.
That's another reason why I am disappointed in Biden.
The democratic party needs all of its leadership gone, people like Pelosi are keeping the party down at the expense of the American people.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2024/08/16/biden-oil-drilling-production/ :
As he campaigned for president in 2020, Joe Biden made a bold promise at a New Hampshire town hall, adding repetition for emphasis: “No more drilling on federal lands. Period. Period. Period. Period.” […] The Biden administration has now outpaced the Trump administration in approving permits for drilling on public lands, and the United States is producing more oil than any country ever has.
Green energy, EV investment, union empowerment (inb4), student debt relief marijuana pardons and likely rescheduling, infrastructure, drug price controls, Chips act, PACT act, non-competes banned (by FTC along 'party lines'), pardoning people kicked out of military for being gay, supporting Ukraine, etc, etc.
People saying he didn't do anything have their head in the sand.
Is this where we cue "but he didn't do everything, everywhere, all at once"?
Senile old man with a giant ego can’t remember what he’s said or what he’s done. A sad state
idk he certainly did some decent stuff, and tried to do even more while being blocked by the other branches, but he broke his word several times.
I'll miss the boring politics as we faceplant back into potus orange haired toadus
It's been fine waking up every day simply concerned about the economy and people experiencing terrible things from afar, soon my morning concerns will include our local immigrants, a christofacist state, political retribution against some of the few politicians with some integrity, a further broken judicial system, broken education, banned abortions, broken social security, further broken health insurance. Ugh
Cool story bro.
Ah yeah joes legacy failing to remove the bad policies he helped write and pass into legislation for 50 years. Dead Gaza Baby, Three Strikes Your Black, Drugs are only ok if your Rich or related to me - greatest hits.
Laughs in student loan debt relief…… Which was coincidentally the only reason i even swallowed my pride and voted for this centrist billionaire puppet.
Sick and tired of voting for the “lesser of two evils” when its clear both of which have puppet strings leading directly to blackrock, state street, vanguard and all the other war profiteering mutual fund wall street billionaires. The us political landscape has become a joke of blatantly fascist imperialism.
I have this really wierd take where I judge things based on the other things in their group. A sort of realtive judgement based on my experience of reality. As opposed to what I feel it should be in an ideal state in my head. I would like to get to that ideal state but it has not come to be yet. Once again I will say that biden was the best president of my lifetime. I get a lot of flak from that but so far no one has taken a president from the last 50 years as an example of how much better they were than him or gave me a run down rank putting him at the bottom below reagan and bush and trump and such.
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: I kept my word—that when I said I was going to do something, I did it. My focus has always been on how to give ordinary people a shot. You've probably heard me say it before: my dad used to say, "Joey, a job is about a lot more than a paycheck. It's about your dignity. It's about respect. It's about being able to look your kid in the eye and say, 'It's going to be okay,' and mean it." It's about being able to be yourself and focusing on people who need some help. The vast majority of the American people, all they want is a chance—just a chance—and they'll do fine.
Also Joe Biden months before pardoning his son for 'any and all crimes' committed over more than a decade:
No one is above the law!
But there's a hell of a lot more Biden promised and never even tried.
Hell, he said the only way he wouldn't run in 2024 was if "the Lord almighty himself" told him to, then he dropped out
Biden may have started 2020 with a few scraps of dignity left, but it's all gone by now and he probably doesn't even know. Geriatric politicians like him Pelosi probably honestly think we all love them.
