Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I wish there were someone who wasn't evil or whose only selling point was they aren't bad. Is having inspiring canidates really too much to ask for?
The most pressing crisis to all of humanity is the climate and somehow Biden got through congress an estimated $1.3 trillion climate bill. I'm not sure a Bernie could've pulled that off.
You don't have to love or even like him, but he has selling points other than not being Trump.
Literally in a thread talking about the good things Biden has done
I mean, kinda, yeah. You saw what happened to Sanders.
But so long as the red team is in full literal Nazi mode, we really shouldn't bitch too much about the not-evil options. We don't want to sentence the US with another Trump because the alternative is uninspiring.
It's a shitty system, but let's work with that we got.
There's nothing wrong with a boring, uninspiring president. Obama had a ton of charisma but Biden's presidency is honestly a lot better. Sure, the country sucks right now, but at least Biden is trying to make it better, after the last guy did so much to try and destroy everything our nation is built on. It's going to take a long time and a lot of hard work to crawl out of this hole the GOP has dug us into. I think there are people who could have done better than Biden, but in all honesty he's probably the best president we've had in my lifetime. I give him a B+.
I've been eligible to vote since 2001 and I can say that Biden has been the vote that I've been the most okay with. He's accomplished a fair bit despite the political situation. Maybe it would be more ideal if he were younger, but this is how it is now and I think he's doing well, all things considered.
