    people are living in the streets, families are going hungry, minimum wage is $7.25 nowhere near enough to cover current cost of living with corporations paying less than during the pandemic, nonviolent people locked up in poor conditions over flowers, abortions rights have been stripped, not talking Boston but all bridges and infrastructure needs attention, police are more militarized than ever, journalists and activists are being silenced

    but hey at least our leader is not Trump and he has more funding to throw away at winning an election not based on merits and he is not Trump and he forgave a small amount of student loan debt compared to the total and he promises to fight to restore women’s rights and says he means well on bunch of other issues, and did we mention his name his Joe and not Donald

    dude flat out told his wealthy donors not to worry

      Yeah, he told them nothing will fundamentally change… with their standard of living if they are taxed more. He was saying they shouldn’t worry about his policies, because even if they pay more they’re still wealthy.

      This has been debunked many times.
