I don’t think you’re reading the room, Marianne. The man hasn’t even taken office yet. A week ago, we ensured a horrific coup attempt. Please let us breathe before unleashing the latest stream of anger. You think you’re helping, but you’re not.

Way to support someone trying to help.

I’m guessing he’s implementing solutions in a small, bite size , stepwise fashion. The alternative would be one huge ‘grand design’ of a bill which would never succeed. @JoeBiden might not have been the perfect choice for progressives but can you imagine 4 more years of Trump?

It’s like they want another insurrection

Democratic primary votes: Biden: 19,080,152 Williamson: 22,334

Two reactions to this, Marianne: First, I agree with you. Second, I am terrified the Democrats/progressive people will not take a single beat before undermining any and all efforts to repair this nation. This is the time to 'harness love' & urge constructively.

We are in the middle of a pandemic and am economic crisis. Millions unemployed. Biden is playing semantics with dollar amounts - that’s fucking violence and abuse. If he were breaking a promise over renaming confederate namesakes, that would be different. This is very very cruel

I'm unironically okay with trading $600 for a $15 federal minimum wage.

Right? How is reducing poverty by 30-40% something to talk about or be proud of? We have the means to end poverty. They are consciously choosing to keep 60-70% of people in poverty through their policies. This is archaic.

We just got a measly $600, $1400 would make me giddy.
