Can’t pay for shyt that benefits the populace though
That makes him the most progressive president since LBJ, tbf. (I get what you are saying, but we have had some very right wing presidents)We shouldn't be surprised Biden is a centrist. The idea he would be the most progressive president since LBJ was cap. His track record is that he is a post New Deal centrist 3rd way Democrat. He is a smidge to the left of Obama and Clinton but thats it. It's crazy more funding for the same law enforcement that about 80% support Trump, very right wing and have ties to right wing militias. And let's be real they aren't going to use the money the right way to hire diverse cops. Throwing money at them isn't going to fix the white supremacist culture in law enforcement.
Who gives a fukk. The government created this problem by giving our student loans to everyone allowing colleges to not care about controlling costs and making it affordable. Reduce the defense budget a few percentages and wipe out student loan debt. This isn’t an insane concept. You know how much money gets wasted by the war machine every year, You and me pay more in taxes than Warren Buffett and Jeff Bezos. There are literally a million ways to easily pay to eliminate student loan debt and it would benefit so many middle and lower class citizens. The people who get pissed off by this concept are exactly what’s wrong with American culture and why we’re currently in a death spiral.People support some student debt relief. The problem comes when the twitter left jumps off the porch and starts condemning 10k in debt relief as not enough and demands 50k.
Considering a lot of people demanding 50k on this site are in the top 10%+ of earners it becomes comedic and entitled.
Doubling Trump’s budget for hiring police officers is centrism?? lol God this country is fukkedWe shouldn't be surprised Biden is a centrist.

Republicans are fantastic at creating opposing narratives to drum up their voters to get outraged. Meanwhile, the Dems just let it happen and say oh well.
It's going to be killed by Senate Republicans just like any other bill Dems support
Watch as Sinema doesn't even bother to show up to vote.
I’m down with it tbh progressives should’ve done the same with Medicare for allI thought we wanted action?
The elephant in the room is that alot of the white electorate that voted for Biden support law enforcement. Especially white suburban voters. These were the Republican never Trumpers/conservative democrats in swing districts. They were turned off by the BLM protest. They were disgusted at the way George Floyd died but many of them have the mentality that since the officer is in jail that the work is done. They did not like the Defund the Police idea but were turned off by Trump and the GQP fear mongering. In their world view police reform should be minimum. They still believe that bad cops are a minority and that the majority of cops are good. In short white folks don't care. White folks have been conditioned since they were young to trust and believe in police. Its very hard for them to shake that world view. Even after George Floyd got murdered with a knee to his neck they still won't believe that the majority of cops are scumbag fascist. Black people know this because we experience it. This is what happens when you have a big tent party. A democrat from Arizona/Texas have very different views on police reforms to democrat from New York/Cali. It is what it is.Doubling Trump’s budget for hiring police officers is centrism?? lol God this country is fukked
