Trump launches fossil fuel fight in Scranton, PA. The Republican candidate warned that Ms Harris’ renewables plan would “crush” the country’s electrical grid, called wind energy “bullshit”, and claimed the vice president’s green energy subsidies would lead to higher prices. [All lies, of course]

   In terms of major legislation, in just 2 years of Democratic control of Congress under Joe Biden we got:

   The Infrastructure Bill which puts $1.2 trillion toward modernizing our buildings, roads, and power grid.

   The CHIPS and Science Act which is working to vamp up domestic semiconductor production, making us less reliant on China for our tech goods.

   The Safer Communities Act, the first federal gun safety legislation to pass congress in 30 years.

   The Inflation Reduction Act which increases corporate taxes, invests in domestic energy production and manufacturing, and allows the government to negotiate directly with pharmaceutical companies to lower drug costs, and is the largest climate change bill in history.

   And those are just the major bills – not even counting the smaller policy changes like the Hospital Price Transparency Law, National Apprenticeship Act, the IRS adjusting the 2024 tax brackets to keep up with inflation, and dozens of other smaller-but-meaningful policy changes.

   His policy agenda has resulted in an economy where real wages are increasing, unemployment is at historic lows, GDP is increasing at historic rates, the stock market is hitting all-time highs, U.S. energy production is at all-time-highs, and we’re experiencing the lowest rate of inflation of any developed economy. Like, if Biden is shitting the bed so hard we wouldn’t have seen Trump at a rally a couple weeks ago literally trying to take credit for our current economy.

   I personally push back against staunch criticism of Biden’s capability because his legislative record is very strong. I base my opinions on the observable facts relating to his actual governing accomplishments rather than 30 second clips used to push a narrative completely unrelated to his demonstrated ability to do his job.
