    Don’t give me this Obama progressive bullshit. ACA was a republican plan.

    And yet it was more progressive than anything Biden has passed. Don’t give me this Biden progressive bullshit.

      Well you’re just wrong. Obama was not as progressive as Biden and believe me I was shocked by both. The proof is in the policies.

      Oh and being an ally of Israel is universal for both parties. Whoever was in office would’ve supported them. Obama certainly had some extremely disappointing foreign policy as well.

        The ACA remains more progressive than anything Biden has done. If I was wrong, you would have offered counterexamples by now.

          ACA wasn’t progressive though! I’m working so I’m short on time to pull receipts and probably quick-tempered as well so sorry for being a bit of an asshole. But ACA wasn’t a progressive policy. We are still paying insurers instead of providers and ACA isn’t particularly affordable but I’ll grant it is there for folks who have no other option.
