Biden won in 2020 because Trump absolutely botched the national pandemic response. Now Biden is dealing with a recession on all but name, meteoric inflation, a war in Europe, and a genocide in Gaza. He obviously can't do much for the economy, but he has the deck stacked against him and is going to need the youth and muslim votes if he hopes to win in November. All he has really done for young voters is a few waves of student loan forgiveness. Nothing he does will win over "moderate" Republicans, so he needs to rally support from young voters.

So why doesn't he force Israel to allow the aid deliveries? Biden is the only person on earth that can stop the killing and all he has to do is withdraw his support from Bibi. Instead he makes hollow gestures and lets Israel undermine those gestures.

Many people are very uncomfortable with giving any amount of support to genocide. Couple that with an already apathetic voting population who was been told "this is the most important election of yoir life" every other year for the past 8 years, they would rather just stay home. Blame leftists who want to end the genocide in Gaza all you want, but at the end of the day, the Democrats have been botching their voter outreach.

Yikes. Maybe it's time for you to log off and get some fresh air for a bit.

I don't agree with what this commenter is saying, but why was this comment removed?

jesus fucking christ, what goddamn reality are you living in????

This is absolutely false, he has been doing everything possible to forgive student loan debt for kids, he's the first goddamn president to join workers ON THE FUCKING PICKET LINE. This meme position is yet another branch of this priority to accommodate younger demographics.

Additionally, Biden's US has done the most for providing aid in Gaza by FAR, they just finished a new pier purely for a safer and more consistent vector for delivering said aid to Gazan people who desperately need it, as Israeli zionists block truck-based aid.

Biden has to be jesus fucking christ himself to satisfy you people goddamn it

He's wiped student loan debt for around 4.75 million people. Sounds like a lot but then you realize there's 45,000,000 with student loan debt and $1,750,000,000,000 total student loan debt.

He didn't wipe the debt out, he just stopped fighting in the courts over an existing loan forgiveness program that Betsy DeVos had decided to fuck with during Trump's first term. And the bulk of this loan forgiveness came as part of a deal that required 10 years of employment in a public sector career. Fucking with it meant undermining recruitment efforts by the Pentagon, the FBI, etc.

Biden is trying to take credit for a Clinton Era Program, not unilaterally writing off billions in debt.

Even setting aside the fact that $7B isn't even a percentage point on outstanding debt, this is purely headline gore and has little to do with Biden's domestic policies.
