Doesn't the quotes just ruin his whole thing? You either say "so much for progress" or something like "thanks for the 'progress'". 'So much for "progress" ' feels like a double negative
Strong disagree.
Putting it in quotes highlights the alleged progress that gets talked about. But it calls it out as false. This isn't uncommon in English, not sure of other languages.
