Biden's Legacy

[Natural]

As Trump begins dismantling what Biden did you and others will be finding out sooner or later what his legacy was. For example, farmers are currently finding out he was more beneficial to them than they likely initially perceived.

He was still right wing

Then why did people prefer him over Trump?

Because the US has no idea just how far Right politics have drifted since the end of WWII. The truth is, Biden is barely Left from Trump, but being left of hunting the homeless for sport is what counts as “Center” or “Left” to the American people

Well I think I once heard Biden was socialist back when he got elected

Yeah, American people call everything and everyone with a slight concern for basic human decency “socialism.” It’s about as meaningless as “woke”

I am pretty sure there’s definitely worse presidents. Trump’s first presidency was a complete joke and his second is turning out even worse. So at least Biden isn’t Trump, which is weak accomplishment

Trump's first term was okay. Loving every moment of his second one, love that he doesn't have to hold back anymore.

He was a good president since he wasnt right wing

Most issues in the last decade, including racism is actually more a left wing thing. Right wing might actually solve the mess society is in. Just look at how Trump is killing the insane "woke" movement that has been running too wild.


But people here seem to lose focus of the core topic, which is Biden, not Trump. If all people can say about Biden, is that he wasn't Trump, I'm afraid the guy haven't left any legacy at all

Biden's legacy its the Genocide in Gaza, thanks to its support to Israel.

That's how he will be remembered, as well as Netanyahu.

And no, I'm not stating that I support Hamas' actions at all, but even in wars there are crimes being commited that should be sanctioned by international laws.

Sadly UN is just a mere ornament for international affairs. They can cast votes and all that circus, but they don't implement any solution to anything at all. Recommendations represent no changes in people's life under a war situation.

Post WW2 policies ushered in the most liberal era of America ever and it's not even close. Civil rights legislation, desegregation, womens liberation, gay liberation movement, gay marriage, 1965 Hart-Cellar Act etc etc etc

Do you think you could be walking around with fucking cat ears and they/them pronouns in 1930s America?

Jesus Christ, have you ever read a book?

I think that Biden was more of a centrist than anything. Biden was too moderate to be considered a socialist. Plus, Biden doesn't even come close to actual socialists like Bernie.

He was a good president since he wasnt right wing

There were good presidents on the left, right, and center. Presidents leaning rightward do not mean that they will do a bad job.

He was still right wing

No, he was definitely a moderate. I think that some people think this because they believe that Biden didn't go far enough in his policies; I think that the reason why the Biden administration was quiet compared to Trump was because he was trying to toe the middle line to avoid making waves on the political spectrum. It's sometimes difficult to distinguish moderates from people firmly convinced of either political ideology, so I understand why you think this way.
