A good in-depth discussion of media bias in political reporting, or why is it that Biden voters are encouraged to understand an empathize with Trump voters but Trump voters are never asked to understand Biden voters?

    This is just plain bizarre. This is some IMAX level projection from an obvious trump troll. There is no Biden cult, sorry to burst your desperate and pathetic “both sides” fantasy.

    i hate trump and it’s so much MUCH worse and embarrassing when someone from the same political side as me speaks from such thorough ignorance about it.

    do yourself a favor and spend 30 seconds on googling biden’s stances on doma, dont ask don’t tell and the student loan crisis; to get a glimpse at how he thinks about marginalized/at-risk groups and how’s he’s used them for decades for his political gain.

    since you’re clearly digging in your heels; i’m going to try to undercut your next arguments since they are always the same three from the deeply ignorant liberal crowd:

    1. biden recently defended his decisions on all three plus multiple more shitty decisions; so it doesn’t matter how long ago he said it or made those laws.
    2. biden refused to change his mind all the way up until his presidential campaign and has a solid history of changing his mind but only once it becomes politically convenient for him; so he didn’t “evolve” or get better, he just knows that trump is weaker on this topic and uses your ignorance about his past of truly horrific anti-lgbtq/black/poor history to get your vote.

    Additionally: no, dunking on gays for easy politically points in the past wasn’t popular, many politicians (eg bernie sanders) never did it.

    1. his beliefs are the reason why he’s not bothering to improve anything, especially on the student loan debt. also: yes there are many things he can do even though congress is trying to block him; but he won’t do it no matter what. (google these too)

      Biden […] has a solid history of changing his mind but only once it becomes politically convenient for him

      You say that like it’s a bad thing. Biden has sat himself in the center of his voterbase his entire career.

      I see that as being a good thing for a democratically elected politician.

        by that same logic trump is just as good because he too changed his mind when he ran for president.

          In that regard, sure. Trump’s clearly tapped into the primal needs of his voterbase, and is the representation they desire.

          Your article literally says “Biden already did this” to the first three options. And the 4th option, amping up income-based repayments, is covered by the link I shared, where they discuss the new IDR plan, SAVE, that the Biden administration introduced.

          I’ll take your apparent ignorance of these facts as an indication that you didn’t read either article.

          Also, just so you know, Google’s results are dependent on you - your location, your past search behavior, other information Google has on you, etc., so you are incorrect in assuming that someone else will get the same search results as you.
