Robert Reich: Banning medical debt from credit reports. Cracking down on junk fees. Banning non-competes. Capping credit card fees. Negotiating drug prices. Expanding OT pay. These Biden policies don't make headlines, but this is what it looks like when government works for the people.

Banning medical debt from credit reports. Cracking down on junk fees. Banning non-competes. Capping credit card fees. Negotiating drug prices. Expanding OT pay. These Biden policies don't make headlines, but this is what it looks like when government works for the people.

Why does the media ignore Biden’s real achievements AND Trump’s lies, refusals to answer legitimate questions, vile statements and obvious cognitive deficits?

Money, there isn’t anything else that matters to them.

All great except Biden is completely complicit in the GENOCIDE of the Palestinians. If you're willing to ignore that and only look at his "wins", then you're complicit in that genocide as well. It's sickening to watch Dems laud Biden while completely ignoring him enabling Palestinian GENOCIDE!!.

Exactly this: how can anyone think capping credit card fees outweighs enabling the systematic murder of tens of thousands of people?

For the 100K voters in the half dozen swing states: None of that matters. They are largely detached from everyday US politics and as Clinton noted, will favor "strong and wrong" over "weak and right". Right now Biden is weak, flailing, stubborn and greatly endangering the country

Biden is not weak or flailing, poor debate performance notwithstanding. Biden broke OPEC's stranglehold on the price of oil, and turned a tidy profit at the same time. Biden has moved to reschedule marijuana. Biden (not First Felon Trump) capped the price of insulin. Biden is SHARP!

Heiress Abigail Disney should reconsider her decision not to support the Biden ticket. The alternative is disastrous. This is not the time for equivocation.

Seeing Biden as”Sharp” is delusion. The Biden of debate night could easily reemerge at any moment. He was losing in 5 of 6 swing states last week and polls will soon show he’s down even more. It’s is the height of irresponsibility to remain in this race.

Nope.

It is the height of irresponsibility to blow up and overdramatize this insignificant debate performance. Real Americans know Biden is truthful, and the First Felon is a liar. There is no reason for reliable supporters to break ranks whatsoever.

Biden - an incumbent and mostly successful president - was losing before the debate and he is losing even more afterwards. It's embarrassing having an elderly, fragile, stiff, slow contender. If he refuses to withdraw, we face catastrophe as Trump crushes him

Biden is not weak, and in November you will see.

Loyalty has descended into delusion. Biden is clearly senile, stiff, cannot speak loudly, needs his nap time, only is in top shape from 10 AM to 4 PM. What kind of President or nominee is this? One that is headed for a catastrophic loss. it is DELUSION to not see this

More of this!

It’s completely inhumane that cancer drugs can cost 180k a year. People die because of this.

This is all good stuff and the Dems should really tout it. But ... it doesn't take away from what the U.S. & the world saw on Thursday night. President Biden should do the courageous thing, admit that he can't continue, and get behind another candidate ... IMO.

Except for the courts have taken it all away. So we got nothing. What's biden's plan to actually achieve any of these goals now?

Has this list actually been accomplished, by Biden or his team?

Yes.

Democrats have continued for decades under the illusion that persuadable voters are totally left-brained, detailed policy wonks. They aren't. Both sides of the brain are engaged with voting as in life. Policy arguments alone lead to losing.

“Banning non-competes” How’s that report from Presidential Commission on the Supreme Court doing? Does it have enough dust yet, or do we need to send more money so it can sit on a shelf for four more years? That’s the strategy right? Let them roll us, and then campaign on how we just got rolled.

🔥🔥🔥

Biden has numerous W's along with his L's. He is far from the worst President. Far from the best. He's our good ol' average Joe. A mixed bag. Good and bad alike. Like a box of mystery chocolates. Many days you have your favorite chocolate and then one day it's filled with shit in the middle.

Where the hell are you buying chocolates that have shit in the middle?

From the German candy shoppe :V

Not that far from the best. More W's than L's. For the people.

This is exactly why American oligarchs want to install Trump. Shareholder “value” over actual people. People have been conditioned to vote against their own best interests.

Of course we vote against our narrow selfish interests. We want people to be able to cast a vote that will result in surrendering a portion of their privilege to help people or the planet, right? That self-interest canard is libertarian or neoliberal anti-solidarity propaganda.

Reich policy: banning multi-family housing in his neighborhood

All of these are likely gone on the first court challenge after Friday’s Supreme Court ruling.
