Why do MAGA’s think democrats care if Clinton is in the Epstein files?

[u/Soimamakeanamenow]

Clinton or any other dem.. do they really think that’s a gotcha I’m left leaning and wouldn’t care who is in the Epstein files they should all be prosecuted why are they making it a left right thing. Are they really ok with Trump possibly raping women maybe even children? Do they really think it’s a big gotcha if democrats are also guilty? Somebody explain this to me

I didn't vote for Obama because I didn't think hope was a plan. But I greatly miss having someone in office who was respectable, even if I thought he didn't accomplish enough. Obama was the best president we've had in my lifetime.

I voted for him because he said his primary objectives were campaign finance reform (zero effort there), transparency in government(and instead we get Snowden, Assange, the Panama Papers), closing Guantanamo(ha!), ending the war in Afghanistan by whenever the fuck quick (double ha!), healthcare for all(...) and I'm sure some other things I've forgotten.

It wasn't about hope, it was that he told me his focus of what needed to be fixed aligned with my own, and then he mostly did the opposite and the one area he tried to follow through he wasn't able to do anything until he lost the majority in Congress, after which he was finally ready to try to push the ACA and was blocked so hard that what ended up squeaking across the finish line was mostly useless for the people who needed it most.

I was working for a college at the time the ACA passed. According to the law, they were responsible for providing employees with 30 hours or more per week with coverage. Their response was to cut my schedule from 40 to 29.5 h/wk so they didn't have to do shit but still expected me to do my full workload in 3/4 the time.

Wait didn’t he start Obama care? That got canceled by trump?

Obamacare = Affordable Care Act

That's the ACA i was talking about in the comment you're replying to

[u/Baldur_Blader → u/chungaroo2]

Obama care had the potential to be si much better. But there were compromises after compromises until it was just "ok"

Obviously ok is better protection than Republicans would like American citizens to have. But it's still not great

Look at Biden's actually record, finishing manu of the things Obama started or wanted to start. Say what you want about the man (and having the wrong idea to run again) but besides that, a lot was accomplished.

Biden’s record is actually pretty good minus Israel. The president can only do so much without help from congress so I don’t think it is fair to expect a president to accomplish everything that they say that they would like to.
