This is the only good thing you can think of in 5 years of office? No matter what side you are on, that's sad... not taxing tips, social security are 2 that I can think of that are recent. I'm not sure who couldn't agree with that.
Pretty much yes. I found only one promising statement in his 2016 runup - that he could buy politicians, essentially surfacing US's saturated levels of institutional bribery. ref:https://archive.fo/UdzO1
I thought it was the most honest statement I could remember from a politician. FF to now and the executive branch is/has been openly, loudly selling deep direct access to every possible inch of federal power. It's corruption without parallel.
So yeah. I can't think of one thing in 5 years of office. Maybe it's the ongoing massive campaigns of brutish cruelty that has my attention. Or maybe it's how some large % of the US population is increasingly turned on, the more unethical his behavior is. It's one of those or maybe it's one of the other endless competing calamities.
I am sad. I can't think of a single good thing that has been accomplished by the current administration. Not in its first year here and now, or in the previous four years (with training wheels and pandemic).
I would welcome a generous reassessment by a fair reporter: Is there a list of accomplishments somewhere? Some solid map of milestones?
Not the blathering superlatives of self-aggrandizement as displayed in the recent subhumane Rob Reiner TDS takedown, but a real list of genuine positive accomplishment that we can all agree on and comfort ourselves with when the night gets long and the darkness grows.
I find it hard to believe that we've accomplished nothing but the chaos in those five years.
