    Under Donald Trump, Congress moved swiftly to block a president from starting a war with Iran. As Joe Biden allows the country to be dragged into such a war, criticism is nearly nonexistent.

    Proof that Trump is the harm-reduction candidate.

      This has been in the back of my mind and more recently at the front of my mind, that the democrats only seem to resist some of the bad things we want to stop when republicans are in charge. It’s the only time I ever see them fight, and then once they get one of their own in office they just continue most of the policies they were trying to convince that they would stop if we voted for them. And Kamala seems like she’ll be even worse than Biden somehow, signalling that she’ll be rolling back some of the very few milquetoast progressive descisions that Biden has made.
