Yes. Carter got the blame for chemotherapy, Reagan got credit for the recovery.
This time around, who wants to be Carter? Somehow I suspect we will be short of volunteers. Neoliberal propaganda shot itself in the foot. Oops.
- jimbokun 5y agoI feel like Biden has been surprisingly willing to do "the right thing" in spite of political fallout. Like leaving Afghanistan, even though it led to the Taliban regaining control.
- ThunderSizzle 5y agoBiden delaying and screwing up Trump's plan to pull out of Afghanistan that was already in progress and getting Americans killed, leaving millions/billions of dollars of equipment, and sacrificing people who helped our soldiers to the Taliban is "the right thing"?
- jimbokun 5y agoTrump never pulled out of Afghanistan, just talked about doing it and "made plans" that he handed to his successor to execute. Just like Obama, really. Biden actually did it, and paid the political price. There was never going to be any way to withdraw without horrific consequences. Which is why neither Obama or Trump actually did it.
