    Nope, just single-mindedly hate-filled towards anyone who dares to criticize dear leader. Just look at the mindless downvotes, including for posts pointing out simple facts. The student loan problem was caused in large part by biden himself, he shouldn’t be given a free pass for half-assedly attempting to barely scratch the surface of the problem he created.

      It’s more than “pointing out simple facts”. It’s an onslaught of ‘he’s not doing enough’ or ‘yea but look at what he did before’ and absolutely ignoring the fact that what he’s doing now is in the right direction.

      I’m sick of all of the ‘yea buts’ I keep seeing in the comments rather than credit where credit is due. I gave Trump credit when he did the right thing, and Biden is due the same. It’s ok, good even, to be critical, but this isn’t criticism, it’s cynicism.

        Have you considered that biden is actually not doing enough and that he in fact is barely making a dent in problems that he himself created? Taking a hundred steps back and then taking half a step forward is technically “moving in the right direction now” but it’s too little too late, especially when there’s a cliff behind you. If someone blows up your house but then places a few of the bricks back to where they used to be, would you be giving credit where it’s due? Just forget that they blew up your house, you’re just being cynical! Hey, at least they’re moving in the right direction!
