AOC says many who want Joe Biden off ticket also want to remove Kamala
  • Hot take incoming: With the election being less than 4 months away and the Dems having no clear alternative to Biden (other than Kamala but let's be real), sticking with Biden is the best chance we have to beating Trump in November.

    Not saying I'm happy with it but what other choice do we realistically have?

  • Vote out the career politicians who don't really give a shit about you
  • Universal healthcare is not a priority for the Democratic party as a whole despite their voters' pleas for it. Still only a few outliers in the party seem to advocate for it. Biden himself has been reluctant to embrace it.

    And I don't remember student loan forgiveness being an especially popular platform before Biden took office. Sure it's helped a lot of people but it feels very much like a, "we'll take what we can get" policy versus something we've been asking for over decades.

  • Vote out the career politicians who don't really give a shit about you
  • "This kind of leadership is functionally useless to the American people."

    It's been that way for a long time now. Frankly, I can't think of a single agenda the Democratic party has rallied behind in recent memory that isn't not being a Republican. The Democratic leadership is useless, that's just been better than the malicious alternative.

    Edit: I'm getting responses referencing Biden policies or those that are advocated for by a few outspoken Dems. These are not what I'm referring to. The Democratic party as a whole has no message, no mission, no agenda seemingly other than "patch up the damage that the Republicans leave". No wonder Democratic voters aren't motivated, we're not being represented we're just voting to slow the inevitable decay.

  • America’s housing crisis continues to worsen, renters are struggling more than homeowners, report says
  • How would people here feel about a tax that increases in rate per-property owned? People and organizations can still own as many properties as they want, but at some point they're going to be taxed so much it'll be impossible to profit off of them.

  • Responsible guidance is a choice
  • If you put them in the bin, you're going to have to take the trash out or else it's going to stink up the house in a matter of hours. Having been a teenager myself, I can confirm that I would have done just about anything to avoid the laborious task of taking out the trash.
