Supported a genocide and just let the Supreme Court ride roughshod on women’s rights and push the country as close to fascism as it has ever been. You and I have a different definition of great.
If I had Joe Biden’s power and platform for fifteen minutes I’d accomplish more.
Debatable. He is certainly better than Trump and. Duh, but I wouldn’t go so far as to call him great. He is mediocre at best. He’s a career politician and go doesn’t really have America’s best interests at heart. He toes the line.
Has he done good things? Yes. Are we better off than before he took office? That’s honestly such a low bar, should we give anybody credit for that? 😉 But seriously, he is not a risk taker, and being a risk taker is what separates good from great.
I think we can separate a great administration or rather great accomplishments from the president in that his administration has certainly gone above and beyond what many other presidents were able to achieve in just 1 term. Given the status-quo and chaos of the time, that is impressive. I also credit him with making deals with the progressive coalition and uniting the party significantly.
On the other hand I do agree with the criticism that he largely leads from behind the polls instead of really being a visionary and change-maker. I think that’s what most of us respect Sanders for. He stands up for what must be done, regardless of whether it’s popular and advocates for this until it becomes popular.
