President Biden on Monday night issued a plea for supporters to donate to his campaign in the wake of former President Trump’s victory in Iowa.

“Looks like Donald Trump just won Iowa. He’s the clear front runner on the other side at this point,” Biden wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“But here’s the thing: this election was always going to be you and me vs. extreme MAGA Republicans. It was true yesterday and it’ll be true tomorrow,” Biden added, posting a link to a fundraising page.

    You are throwing a tantrum because the solutions aren’t already finished, rather than being happy that there are actual steps being taken that are improving people’s lives.

    The things that you’re railing against, that everybody else agrees with and nobody argued against, are the result of corporate corruption, not presidential policy. Except for Trump’s presidential policies, which were obviously and explicitly biased toward corporate greed.

    You ask for concrete action by Biden and then are ignoring the appointed and confirmed federal judges, veterans benefits, 2 trillion dollars in covid relief, 1.2 trillion for bridges, rail, waterways, public transport, 5 million American jobs, hundreds of thousands of vehicles and buildings renovated for energy efficiency, ignoring the money invested in sustainable technology, ignoring the energy grids being renovated, ignoring the eV charging network built the last four years, ignoring the money for students, ignoring the Pell grants.

    So yea, you’re ignoring literally every physical, tangible result of legislation passed by Biden, but crying out for that evidence you are ignoring.

    And yes, not being a rapist is a good running point when people are swayed by that point.

    You seem to incorrectly think that Trump being a rapist wannabe dictator is as impressive as directly helping people for four years of Biden’s first term.

    This is wrong.

    As much as you enjoy the rapist, Biden is an objectively better president and candidate, and the fact he died not rape people is salient since the leading opposing candidate is a rapist.

    These are not two similar candidates. There’s one rapist who directly committed election fraud and made terrible domestic and foreign policy decisions, and one career middle executive left leaning president that has tangibly helped hundreds of millions of Americans and is investing in the country and its citizens.
