    Biden has literally had a ton of policy victories that the average person should like. If you can’t find any, it’s only because you haven’t looked. No seriously go look. I’m not saying he’s wonderful, great or perfect. But if you think the likely alternative is going to be better than him. You’re only fooling yourself.

        I’m not going to say none of it is but I think you really over estimate how much.

        Biden honestly has a singularly outsided role in the fact that we have marriage equality at all. More or less because Mr gaffe sputtered it out in the open. It basically forced the more hesitant and reticent hand of Obama in pursuing the policy. Who had traditionally been opposed whenever publicly asked.

        The NLRB Union decision under his administration administration was quite earth-shattering. A sea change. This sort of thing most of us thought we would never see again and would only ever read about in history books over the new deal.

        Not to mention his push for public infrastructure. At its highest point ever since, practically the new deal. Works that will benefit everyone and our desperately needed. As well as his American rescue plan and many of the other things that he pushed for, which as you said tended to undo a lot of the damage Trump did.
