Any amount of using AI for learning is learning from Slop which will make you less informed.

I really struggle to believe anybody trusted the Billionaire Candidate to cut costs.

You can't complain that a party with between 45 and 48 senators isn't passing enough legislation. They literally don't have the votes to pass legislation unless all of the stars align and Republicans forget to filibuster. By your logic you're giving Republicans credit for not blocking that particular piece.

Some of what I mentioned was a part of the massive Inflation Reduction Act which did a lot more than reduce inflation.

Schumer and Jeffries did endorse Mamdani in the general, even if a bit late. That's what I'm talking about, a large number of people seem either totally ignorant or completely in the dark about what the DNC do, instead seeing some warped reality where they're the villains.

Biden Administration:

• expanded overtime pay eligibility to millions

• forgave $186 Billion of student loans despite constant pushback from Republican AGs and courts

• increased audits for the rich, which payed for itself and more

• allowed over-the-counter birth control to hit the markets

• pardoned thousands of marijuana convictions, commuting 2500+ sentences

• awarded $286 million for schools student mental health programs

• replaced more federal vehicle fleets with all electric

• expanded solar and wind power across the nation

• drafted new anti-redlining predatory mortgage regulations which went into effect in January

• a crackdown on hidden fees from service providers, ticket sellers, and banks

• forced Chinese companies to properly report SEC Filings in order to remain publicly tradeable

• expanded less carbon intensive farming practices in the USA

• expanded nature conservation and national parks more than any past president, including $4 Billion for the preservation of the shrinking Colorado River

• cut federal funding for career training programs which trap their students in more debt relative to their post-graduation earnings

• brokered a peace deal in the Congo

• strengthened alliance with Japan and South Korea over countering potential threats from China and North Korea

• funded medical research for things like cancer, countering the previous cuts by Republicans

• helped Class-A railroad workers to have industry-wide paid sick leave, albeit after he undercut their strike he still aided them in getting all of their demands in the following months

• literally penned the first and then only AI oversight and regulation with his AI Executive Order

• investigated grocery store price gouging and blocked mergers such as Krogers-Albertsons

• The Respect for Marriage Act which protects gay marriage

• protected LGBT+ Service Members and Veterans

• signed multiple executive orders protecting lgbt+ throughout the federal government including "prevent and combat discrimination on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation" and "advance equality for LGBTQI+ individuals"

• appointed the first openly LGBTQI+ Cabinet Secretary, White House Press Secretary, and White House Communications Director, the two first openly transgender people to ever be confirmed by the U.S. Senate, and the first out lesbian to achieve the rank of Ambassador.

this list goes on, and Biden wasn't even particularly powerful given his only senate majority was 47 DNC and 3 Independents with VP tiebreaker, and only for 2 years.

It's ridiculous if you have no knowledge of policies written in the past two decades, I guess.

Man, you must have been a Maga until the Epstein files came out if you really believe all that. I normally try to bring reason and facts to every argument but I think this might be a tried and true "turtles all the way down" moment.

I haven't met any such people.

I'm all for newer more progressive dems, but the way you insult and drag through the mud all the current dems is ridiculous and harmful to us all.

I'm sorry that you feel the need to protect the Republican Majority, I wish we could have worked towards progress together.

They had 58 senate seats 16 years ago for 2 months. They had 53 seats over 13 years ago. They had 48 or less every year since.

And yet they do pass such legislations literally all the time. You just ignored it.

In 2003 they banned campaign funding from PACs instead allowing only a maximum from individuals, but in 2007-2010 the SCOTUS shut it down then declared it unconstitutional.

The Inflation Reduction Act also contained a ton of good stuff not even related to Inflation.
