    As I’ve said, I will be voting Biden. I’m inclined to believe things will not change.

      Give Dems the power, and we’ll prove you wrong. You’ll love it.

      Don’t forget to vote downballot! And in non Presidential elections!

        We did. They had a comfortable majority in congress and a Democratic president for years. Best we got out of it was the ACA which was more of a corporate love letter than anything else. Not to mention, would’ve been the perfect time to throw a few bankers in jail but no. Couldn’t be bothered to do that.

          We have very different definitions of “comfortable majority”. Dems had a filibuster-proof majority for only a few months. And yes, they passed the ACA, which has saved thousands of lives and is the biggest step towards universal health care we’ve seen in generations.
