He campaigned on public option for healthcare, and he never even mentioned it once after he was elected, he even said he’d veto a M4A bill if it came to his desk. Don’t get me wrong, he actually has exceeded my expectations and done some cool things, but I still want his campaign promise. So…
It might be that Biden kinda sucks in some aspects but something tells me it’s mostly republicans… and Biden is not some authoritarian figure who can just implement whatever he wants. We need less republicans in congress and then maybe we can get shit done.
Healthcare bills need 60 votes in the Senate to overcome a filibuster. Most democrats and even Biden now is for filibuster reform. However, there are currently not 50 democratic senators who support this. So thank the republicans plus Joe Manchin for not having this.
