> More like "the whims of an eighty year old in cognitive decline..." The previous administration was totally not exactly what's described here...

  It wasn’t. Biden largely didn’t do much. The trump administration does illegal things that get struck down in courts on a daily basis. We’re all very desensitized to it. But yes, Biden was old and cognitively not well. But his “whims” didn’t exist much, and they were always fairly reasonable. Trump is the most unreasonable president, most likely in US history. I would even categorize Andrew Jackson as more restrained.

    The courts struck down many Biden policies as well. People just give those a pass because "SCOTUS is rigged" or something...

      The only big one I remember is the college loan forgiveness thing.

          Actually I probably just wasn't paying that much attention.

      Ah, so those weren’t mostly 6-3 decisions along partisan lines?
