The White House is finalizing plans for a U.S.-Mexico border clampdown that would shut off asylum requests and automatically deny entrance to migrants once the number of people encountered by American border officials exceeded a new daily threshold.

        Thats whats crazy. I just want these people to stop gaslighting us into thinking Biden was even within pissing distance to FDR.

        Its just such bad faith to equate the two.

        Yep, you’re completely right. FDR’s bad immigration stance makes Biden’s good. Yep, that is exactly how logic works.

            Then what exactly were you implying?

            FDR’s policy was bad, deplorable even. Biden’s policy is also bad.

            Are we agreeing on this?

      Serious question: who was a more progressive POTUS since FDR?

      • Maybe LBJ with civil rights, Medicare and Medicaid, but Vietnam.
      • Maybe Jimmothy Carter, but he is commonly regarded as a bit unsuccessful as a president

        There hasnt been, what with the rightward drift of the Democratic party. The problem is he is not a progressive.

        We’ve done better on two fronts, gay and civil rights.

        Aside from that we are more right leaning by every other metric. Him being 80% less progressive than FDR is not a flex.

        Edit: have fun losing this election. Yall are so out of touch with the people if you think Joe Biden is progressive.
