Just to name a few:
Continued support and funding to Israel with only the most tepid condemnation as people became more aware of their genocide against Palestinians.
busting the railway union which arguably, if their demand had been met, may not have had the disaster in Ohio. A move rivaled only by Regan
Despite being told that we had to fight for “kids in cages” nothing has actually come to fruition on that front
Biden made the best of a bad situation with the railway union issue. He worked pretty hard and without any need for adulation behind the scenes to continue resolving the strikers needs.
Allowing the railways to collapse would have been financially devastating.
If the economy can be destroyed by a private business going under, then it needs to be nationalized.
That's a bit over simplistic, it wasn't a 'single private business', it was a sector involving transport of freight across the entire country.
But I agree re nationalising integral industries.
