not even "we want to, but can't pass it right now". instead, it is "we won't do it now, but if you butter us up enough we may do something at some future date if we feel like it".

It's only that answer when it's something which would benefit you. If it's something that the wealthy want, well, somehow the system provides or if it doesn't there's just an executive order and it's done. I'm not saying this because you're wrong or wrong to feel that way, I'm saying this because you should be angry all the time not just when you hear whatever excuse it is that your kid has to starve or die or whatever it is.

It took less than a day to push through protections for SCOTUS after the first protesters showed up outside their homes. The system is quick and efficient when it comes time to protect its own interests.

Not so fast friend, Joe has a plan

quote:

The Biden White House is rolling out a new monthlong economic campaign today to try to “communicate on our accomplishments to date on the economy,” according to a White House official.

President JOE BIDEN kicked off the effort with a WSJ op-ed that posted Monday evening, in which he boasted that his “administration’s economic and vaccination plans helped achieve the most robust recovery in modern history.” (More on this in a second.)

This afternoon, the president will huddle with Fed Chair JEROME POWELL to discuss plans for addressing inflation. (Bloomberg has a preview here.)

And on Friday, the president will give remarks on the much-anticipated May jobs report, “highlighting the remarkable progress we’ve made in getting Americans back to work, with unemployment down at a historically fast rate and over eight million jobs created,” the White House official said.

The purpose of the June pivot appears threefold:

1. To convince skeptical voters that, despite their current misgivings, the economy is actually doing quite well.

2. To calm fears about inflation and reassure both everyday Americans and major economic players that Biden has a plan to address it.

3. To thwart GOP efforts to try to hang inflation like an albatross around Democrats ahead of the midterms — and maybe even go on offense by accusing the GOP of pushing policies that will make the economy worse.

why did Biden spend decades trying to be president? trump obviously just wanted attention and to be the #1 most important guy in the world. Biden doesn’t want to pass any policy but he also avoids any kind of attention or responsibility like the plague. even Hillary seemed to actually want to be president, even if it was just because she thought she was entitled to it

he doesn't really have any say in the matter. he is a recognizable name that a bunch of shadowy career political campaign managers thought they could use to make money. rich people will usually hedge their bets and give money to everyone they think could win, so it's a pretty assured payday for everyone in the campaign whether he won or not.

remember that biden only won because the center-right corporatist establishment at the DNC desperately needed to ratfuck bernie and biden was the only candidate that they could plausibly frame as the winner and manufacture consent for. no one wants biden to be president, including himself, but they REALLY didn't want bernie to be president
