    The point is that Biden could’ve made it unrepealable, but didn’t

      How? By what mechanism could he prevent the supreme court from overturning established legal understanding? Because that’s not a thing the president gets to do, like what the fuck are you even talking about?

            Are you unaware that Biden was elected with both houses of Congress in 2020?

            Thank you for proving my point.

            That you don’t understand what political parties are, or . . .?

              So you don’t understand that the executive branch doesn’t control the legislative is what you’re saying. You’re asking why the president didn’t do something the president can’t do because only Congress can, and you’re also pretending the democratic party is exactly as in lock step as the republican party (which is either stupid or disingenuous to the point of bad faith) so I can only conclude you’re either participating in bad faith or don’t actually know what the fuck you’re talking about in the first place.

                Oh, I see - you’re busy pretending that the President isn’t the leader of his party, and can’t use the bully pulpit. Or that Biden didn’t explicitly reject that, as the source I provided shows.

                I gotcha. Can I ask what the point of making this fantasy world for yourself to live in is? Owning the tankies, or . . . ? Because it’s just making you lose your supposed political goals.

                  There you go thinking the way republicans behave and treat the office applies exactly to Dems again. Obama barely got the fuckin ACA through Congress with a supermajority so your position that the president leads the party is pretty goddamn stupid. Only republicans do that demagogue shit, so we’re back to you being bad faith or ignorant.

                    Again, all you’re doing is making a case for why voting for the Democratic Party is a bad idea.

                    so we’re back to you being bad faith or ignorant.

                    These are literally your arguments that the Democrats are supposedly incapable of doing anything. Not mine.
