What are some specific things Biden could do better that are also within his sole power to do? And before you reply, no, I will not look at your Twitter account or “just Google it and see for myself”. I’m asking you a question: use your words to answer.
Hit the road! Not just in swing states but every state, especially into black and brown communities and talk to the people. He also needs to do more in depth interviews live, none of this pre-recorded softball question staged crap. Publicly speak out against the Kroger Albertsons merger and fight to block it. Call for a ceasefire and stop funding the slaughter of children. Lower prescription drug prices for ALL not just seniors.
This is just a start. There’s a lot more he can do but relying on “But Trump” is not enough. Voters are tired of hearing about Trump and want actual change that will improve their lives. The people are struggling.

I’ll partially agree with you there. However, election season or not, he’s the incumbent and still has a job to do. I’d prefer he focus on that. Even if he was out campaigning more, then the narrative would be “Biden spends all his time campaigning, not doing his job”. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t.

Not within his sole power to do. The reductions for seniors are via the Inflation Reduction Act which allows the government/Medicare to negotiate drug prices. Unless we get Medicare for All, that’s about all the government can reasonably do to lower prescription drug prices. While MFA would be awesome, it’s not within his power to do either.

Considering those are the only two candidates (3rd parties are spoilers in the US - don’t kid anyone into thinking otherwise), “But Trump” should be enough (for the general election, anyway).
Those are our choices, like it or not. And one is unarguably worse than the other. Much worse.
“oh that’s only supposed to be for the primary to scare him.” boy that bullshit evaporated quick.
tell you what, propose a candidate that’s better. I’ll wait. otherwise this is just fud, more fud from trumpies trying to get biden off because they KNOW THEY’LL LOSE AGAIN.
Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, J.B. Pritzker, Jared Polis, Josh Shapiro, I could do this all day. We don’t have to go with a feeble genocidal geriatric. It’s a choice. And when he loses in November the fault will not lie with people of conscious, it will lie with those who buried their head under the sand
Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, J.B. Pritzker, Jared Polis, Josh Shapiro,
Oh ok, so which campaign are you supporting? Because NEWS FLASH, NONE OF THEM RAN AND THEY ALL SUPPORTED BIDEN.
And when he loses in November the fault will not lie with people of conscious,
yes, because… that’s not how that word is used. People of conscience will sleep fine knowing they voted for the candidate who didn’t start an insurrection and ban roe.
Shh… I know, you’re out of arguments and not getting your way is upsetting, and you’re afraid Butcher Biden is gonna come for you.
Some of these things are valid, but mostly it’s in your imagination. Calm down lil guy.
I’m not upset that I’m not getting my way. I’m upset that I’m seeing skeletal children in my Instagram feed while Butcher Biden announces he’s going to start work on a pier that will take two months to build while hundreds of trucks full of food are just sitting at the Gaza border. If mass murder doesn’t bother you, carry on sneering at those of us who do care.
What Biden is doing with his material support of a genocide is unequivocally worse than anything Trump did. You can’t go lower than genocide. Yes, you will reply that Trump would do the same or worse than Biden in Gaza. But this isn’t the Trolley Problem. There are other options. If we don’t choose another option, it’s not because we don’t have a choice, it’s because we don’t give a fuck.

welcome to adulthood, where you have to live in the real world. surprised it’s just now upsetting you but <shrug> you do you man. apparently only some of the world’s starving children are worth your time?
You’re right, it’s not the trolly problem, it’s the real world, and shit’s a lot more complex than your tiny head can wrap around, so you go the opposite route and reduce things beyond their actual simplicity, because it’s all you can do.
your other options are all losers to trump, so you’d like to change horses mid race and lose, be my guest, but you do you, don’t tell me how to live mcfuckwit, because Biden’s going to win, again, and make trump look like a fool, again, then go on governing, AGAIN, because it’s the real world and not your hissy fit.
have a nice life, gonna block you now, have fun at the trump rallies.
For being “the most important election of our lives” (for the 50th time) and also “the end of democracy if Trump wins”, Biden should be going at 1,000% then. All I hear are excuses why it’s too hard and how the all powerful Republicans block everything the Dems do. Funny how Republicans get a lot of what they want even when Dems control things.

So he’s not telling you what you already know enough? I don’t get what you’re complaining about here.

What “excuses”? You can go to the House and/or Senate website and look at the votes for any bill. There’s no excuses, just numbers.
Funny how Republicans get a lot of what they want even when Dems control things.
It’s really not, though. Dems are willing to compromise to get something done and R’s will bury their heels and won’t budge unless they get exactly what they want (and then demand more or just vote against their own bills because it might make the D’s look good). And that’s when R’s are even trying to do anything other than obstruct while saying “see? government doesn’t work”
With the former, we at least get something (even if it’s not perfect) and the latter gets us nothing (except tax cuts for the rich).
Then I look forward to Biden fighting for universal healthcare, legalizing marijuana, getting rid of for profit prisons, raising the minimum wage to at least $20, guaranteed housing for all, breaking up Amazon, and more.
Instead of constantly negging on the lesser of two evils and sowing apathy, you could try putting your efforts toward congressional candidates who could actually fix many of these problems.

His administration is doing exactly that.

Perfect cannot be the enemy of good.
Butcher Biden isn’t “good.” He’s evil, just less evil than Trump. He needs to step aside and let someone else represent the Democratic Party.

Man, if the goalposts go any faster down the highway they’re going to get a speeding ticket.
These are things Sanders was running on in 2016, nearly a decade ago.
And?
Bernie’s not the nominee in 2024. Biden is.
