    I’m sorry but the fact that people are so outraged with Biden for doing this is exactly why Kamala lost.

    Trump and the Democrats are held to completely different standards. Trump is willing to fight dirty, and that’s why he won. It sucks to hear but it’s true.

      Democrats are also willing to fight dirty to win at all cost. They just did

      You are confused what winning means for them. It is not forgiving student loan or raising minimum wage.

      You’re absolutely right that they dont fight dirty enough. Hiwever, I’d say that Democrats lost largely because Kamala was too cowardly to distance herself from biden and his awful policies. She lost because she chose to court moderate Republicans (who gave her the finger and voted for the fascist. Big surprise!).

      Biden pardoning his loser son does nothing for the most marginalized folks who will have to deal with Trump’s fascist regime in the coming year. It’s not a good look that the only time Biden “fights dirty” is to serve his own interests.
