    I do remember that. But I also remember he was president for 3 years prior to that promise, and a whole year afterwards, and he made no move to action that.

    Biden wasn’t a bad president, but he wasn’t a great one either.

        too disorganised and fractured

        Disorganized is doing a lot of work there. It really comes down to the fact that they just don’t get quite enough votes to get much done. You can call the Senate seat from West Virginia “fractured”, which is technically true, but that seat was a miracle in the first place.

        People keep wanting to blame “the Democrats” when the same exact thing happens to Republicans. But it doesn’t matter, because voters expect something from the Dems when they have 49-51 seats. When Republicans are in the same position, they just have to stop the Dems. They couldn’t even repeal the ACA. Did that matter? Did they get called “fractured” for not delivering on that campaign promise? What about The Wall? Isn’t that supposed to be ten feet higher by now?

        Democrats have to deliver the moon. Republicans just have to prevent Democrats from getting to the moon. Somehow that makes them “more effective” in the eyes of the voters.

      Remember when the establishment kept repeating he was the greatest President in history
