Biden, Trump and Haley all represent an economic status quo that is predicated on a permanent underclass. Is Biden a lot better than Trump and Haley? Absolutely! But not nearly enough to make the difference between America remaining a true democracy or falling into fascism. Bidenettes who say the economy is doing well are delusional about the level of suffering out there. People literally cannot afford to live. Income inequality - not just Trump - is a serious threat to our democracy. Even if Biden were to win again, we're still on the road to disaster if we don't turn our economic ship around right NOW. #marianne2024 #disruptthecorrupt

Joe Biden has done a lot for the middle class and changing economic domestic and foreign policy. Do you read Heather Cox Richardson or other relevant and reliable sources? substack.com/@heathercoxrich…

Biden is far worse for one reason and one reason only. He isn’t capable of running this administration much less the next one. He is far more compromised than anyone else running and why he is the sole DNC option. If he wasn’t the most compromised candidate he would be out!

Biden better than Trump on the economy? You got to be kidding.

But the policies that maintain the underclass, e.g. the war on work, the war on capital, the war on entrepreneurship, the war on school choice, the rise of overreaching overregulation of small enterprise, union barriers to joining the labor force, min wage, Davis Bacon, onerous licensing, etc are generally progressive policies. And logically so, since the progressive movement started after emancipation to protect white incomes from the new, highly-skilled competition in such numbers that it was driving down wages.

From the ruins of Gaza to the despair in Yemen, the verdict's the same as it is in our streets: 'Better' is a mirage when all roads lead to hardship. 🚧

Biden is unfit. This administration has continued to crap on Women and children. I’m a life long dem and changed to Republican because of this, including the racism of DEI. I never thought I’d vote Trump but I will over a dem. #RamaswamyTsunami

Oh please go away. Another spoiler isn't going to solve any problem. Biden has been a good president. You are not helpful. #BidenHarris2024
