    Biden has done some good with student debt, starting a couple years ago. He would have done more but was blocked by Republican lawsuits and the Republican supreme court. Don’t let perfect stand in the way of good.

      Biden knew it wouldn’t pass thats the point. Hes been in office for long enough to know how these things work. He still promised it!

        Biden tried to do it and was blocked by Republicans. That is somehow evidence that Republicans should be given more power?

        Maybe Republicans need to stop being such predictable boogey men then if Biden so easily manipulated them to his advantage. What Republicans should have done to mess with Biden was to not block it.

        Heads up:

        A plan isn’t a promise. It’s just a proposal to enact policy.

        Whey one rewrites a narrative in this way, accusing him of having made a “promise” and then breaking it- one is essentially creating a boogeyman that allows them to show him in a light that favors a clearly biased agenda.
