Razor thin majority, biggest climate change bill ever, canceled student loans, navigated covid. Sure, they didn't do anything. /s

Was it a metric ton? No but it's better than the alternative.

But hey, why not let Republicans back in to dismantle all that and more. Surely that's better.

If we're this stupid then we deserve all this and more.

They fell far short of canceling the student loans that they promised, the climate bill was laughably insufficient, they did a terrible job during covid. They also recked the economy (some of which wasn't their fault, some of it was), backed a genocide, and ran 2 terrible campaigns. It seems pretty clear to me why voters didn't trust them.

I also never advocated for letting the Republicans back into office. I'm not sure where that came from.
