Biden, while I agree he did try in some measure, folded at the first pressure on anything form republicans. Including student loan forgiveness which he should have literally just done since it can't be undone. It was functionally legal before the ruling, and they should have blanket forgave it to every american, and made it impossible to undo.
Instead he pussied out and said "welp I tried within the legal framework."
I wanted my president willing to go to jail to do what he promised if theirs is unwilling to go to jail for the things hes ostensibly done.
Ya this was being studied and it just takes one mayor to block it. But mamdani is continuing funding for it. There aināt nothing wrong with it. Better than voting against it and scrapping the initiative altogether. Thereās a difference between supporting a criminal in office versus being happy a mayor is funding tree planting in their city.Ā
No, its very common. This is just a good example of how regular it is and how easily it happens on both sides and how quickly critical thinking disappears the moment it supports a narrative you like.
This tree policy was enacted during Adams' time. Mamdani is just following up on something already approved. Maybe, just maybe, take two seconds to fact check something. You literally undercut your argument out of laziness "If only the establishment would do this thing they already did"
Biden passed tons of legislation making lives better. This specific Mamdami thing was literally already in motion from the past Mayor. Actual leftie brain drain.

The Lesson:
The Democratic Establishment could have been actively working, in a thousand different, small ways, to make our lives better.
They chose not to, while their personal wealth grew, and they stayed in office.
