    Here’s the thing that kills me. This is what the presidency is kinda supposed to be like. He’s gotten a good amount of good (and bad) things done. We’ve gotten so used to lazy, ineffectual, malicious, and downright bad governance that a kind of normal presidency seems like “WOAH HOLY FUCK WOW” to some folks. Biden’s a solid statesman when it comes to the actual work of politics, but I wouldn’t say that he’s totally unique or a once-in-a-lifetime statesman. He’s not irreplaceable, we just haven’t been looking for someone to replace him because they did a good job hiding the fact that he needed replacing.

      I’m so glad the “economy” is doing well so rich fucks are more richer and fuckier than before. Meanwhile everyone else is struggling. Hard. Such great. Many progressive.

      And how was this accomplished? Oh yea, by the Fed just printing trillions and trillions of dollars. How can the economy be bad when we’re making so much new money?

        So by your definition, if you’re not struggling, you’re rich - and any improvement can be disregarded (even insulted)?

        I’ve definitely done better in the last 2-3 years, and I am certainly not rich.
