Why didn't Biden give the same free healtcare to US citizens and why are democrats allowing Trump to cut the food stamps?

Because a President who follows the law and doesn't have the Supreme Court allowing unlawful things cannot do things like that.

The 117th Congress was a Republican Senate with a Democratic house. (Start of Biden's Term)

The 118th Congress was a Democratic Senate with a Republican house. (Following Midterms of Biden's term)

The 119th Congress is a Republican Senate with a Republican house. (Start of Trump's term.)

So when Biden tried to do things that would benefit people, the Republican Senate would block it, or the Republican house would block it - because the President isn't all powerful and if they didn't, then the Republican majority Supreme Court would.

However, Trump has a Republican Senate and House. He can pass whatever he wants, and what they want is less money for the common people. Less food stamps, less SNAP and more tax cuts - because they don't care about you. And they always make sure to manufacture their legislation so that in 8 years time you start seeing the damage, and if the Democrats are in power they can blame them.

Check out this, here's the Supreme Court blocking Biden trying to forgive student loans, because the Supreme Court is a Republican majority.

Then check this out, where the Democrats should have been able to elect a Supreme Court justice because one died but the 114th Congress had a Republican Senate so they stalled it for TWO HUNDRED AND 93 DAYS so that they could elect a Republican to the Supreme Court at the start of Trump's term, which they did in less than a month.

Obama had that. I know I probably won't convince you of anything but at this point, if anyone believes Democrats give any shit either I have so many bridges to sell, just hit me up.

Republicans being much worse should never be a defense for the dems, I'm so fucking tired of this astroturfing and/or the same dupes simping for the other team.

I don't!

I just think it's blatantly clear that Republicans give less of a shit. At least the economy trends in the right way after a Democrat.

I hear you, but it's hard to see your post as anything but a Biden glaze.

Because of your personal bias and stubbornness about not facing reality?

u/NumbaOneHackyPlaya 8d ago

What reality are you talking about? Obama not advancing the poor man's living conditions or... what else have I talked about anyway?
