Brother, I can see Biden’s actual policies.

I see a president who walked the picket line with a striking union for the first time in USA, and who has continuously fought for and created pro-worker and pro-labor policies, including mandating union labor in the IRA and CHIPS acts, updating Davis-Bacon standards to prevent federal construction contractors from paying below-market wages, supporting stability for service workers when contracts are rebid, and raising the contractor minimum wage to $15 per hour and indexed it to inflation, as well as appointing labor-favorite appointees to the NLRB.

Nice try with the “BoThSidEs” though.

Can I ask you why you think corporations give as much money to Democrats as they do to Republicans? What does that money buy? Do you think they're just being generous? Or do you think it ensures that Dem efforts to fight corporate power are largely symbolic, lowest effort possible, bullshit? With benefits that are so miniscule that you have to constantly remind voters that they even happened? Seriously, my whole life I've been watching Democrats take micro-steps and then wondering why they have to keep reminding people they did anything at all.
