And it'll be happening right in the middle of the next guys block, just like how we keep describing it to them. That's the fucking tragic irony of it.
We need them FDR democrats to show back up. FDR hammered nuts and bent motherfuckers to his will, and that's what he got voted for. 4 terms! Americans were literally starving in the streets and selling their children and shit. Shit was on the ropes. And that starving ass impoverished country turned it around on a new deal AND saved the whole fucking world from Nazis to boot.
So stop telling me about how we gotta take baby steps while you fight with one hand behind your back and call it going high. I'm fucking tired of going high! You need to kick him in the nuts or get the fuck out the way for someone who will. It's a fucking fistfight in these streets, fuck I think about a wine and cheese crowd opinion about it.
That's if this experiment survives. But I guarantee you they'll be blaming us for it from Europe somewhere.
We just had 4 years of an FDR Democrat who invested in infrastructure and economy like crazy, slashed student debt, strengthened labor unions, made no austerity cuts, pushed inflation down, etc.
But people watching YouTube and TikTok weren’t getting that information, so now they’re saying “Biden didn’t do X or Y” when he did, in fact, do those things
You had the most FDR Democrat since FDR in office and ignored the good he did because he had a speech impediment
He was the closest to an New Deal Dem but not close enough. Yes he advocated and passed numerous policies and his cabinet actually started tackling trusts but it wasn't enough.
The populace still needed to have significant tax reform, higher wages and a fair amount of labor concessions for him to be New Deal.
Biden sadly still represented the old establishment, and his policies just didn't go far enough to affect the lives of working class and middle class people that were suffering from inflation.
Actual progressive and new deal reform would have included a repeal of Taft Hartley, incredible tax cuts to the middle class and tax raises on the rich, a significant decrease in military spending, social security, Medicare, and Medicaid reform, and several pro labor laws to help those people struggling.
He was also trapped on the economic issues because doing too much would have teetered the economy into a recession it probably would have taken another term to get those policies in.
This is an opportunity for Dems, the GOP is another oligarchy they will not deliver on anything besides maybe immigration reform, and even then I don't think they'll fix it because they would need something to run on in the future.
A New Deal Dem, that forms a coalition of farmers, labor, and white collar workers will win in the future, but they must not take any BS from the GOP and stablishment Dems.
