I agree that he has been a good president - the most progressive president in 50 years (yes, I realize that's a bullshit statement since there have been no even-close-to-progressive presidents). For those who think he's demented, please listen to his interview on Conan O'Brien's podcast. He's phenomenally engaging and has a great wit and memory.

I agree. Especially since boomers own a huge percentage of the wealth in the US.

Why is that the perception?

Hint: Corps are at record high profits as is wealth inequality.

I get it and can’t really disagree. But if we want more progressive policy we have to talk with our friends and family more enthusiastically about even small steps to change the narrative. I find very few people say anything positive about Biden, even students who have been given relief for thousands of dollars! What the fuck.

I get it. Maybe we can all just start by changing the conversation and focus on the positive things Biden has done and encourage more of the same. The narrative is only focusing on the negatives and that will affect polling and voting.

lol. Did I say Biden was a progressive OR did I say he was MORE progressive than any president in the last 50 years?

I’m smoking rational thought, shared by others. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/07/13/why-progressives-winning-inside-democratic-party/

Does it suck as bad as the worst we can get? Because current progressive messaging is guaranteeing the worst outcome, not the best.

Curious what everyone is using for hauling their dogs around in the back of the R1S. As recommended on another thread on the rivian forum, I am using this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01439XBKE?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1. Size large fits nicely except it doesn't cover the 3rd row arm rests. As always, the products from Canvascovers are very nice, but the open seams just look like a haven for dirt and dog hair.
