Nah, he tried to do what he said he would. Several states with absolutely no fucking standing sued on behalf of companies that stated they didn’t wanna be part of the suit, and took the case to the SCOTUS, who said “oh, out of literally whole-cloth interpretations of the law that make no sense, we decide that large-scale loan forgiveness is not purview of the Department of Education, and can only be done with a law passed by Congress.” Biden could’ve, and honestly should’ve, done it anyway after the immunity ruling, and said “it’s an official act, you can’t do shit”, but saying “he didn’t even try to do anything” is disingenuous.
Again his team told him that was gonna happen if he tried to make a new executive privilege. He has never applied to do it the long way, correct? Like acting like Joe Biden wasn’t disingenuous is disingenuous, like im sure idiot lemmycrats upvote you because it might make Harris look bad, but point to something he did that wasn’t already law? Again the debt cancellation you keep parroting that he accomplished was brought to you by George W Bush in 2007.
“point to something he did that wasn’t already law”.
Why? What he did was focus on it and make it happen. Nobody gives a shit who wrote the law in.
We also know that todays republicans tried everything under the sun to stop it for nothing but corporate interests. These loans were scams and theyre being erased.
