Those little people?

Those poor little people can’t get enough credit for anything that they didn’t do! They wine and cry how terrible they have been treated! They can’t stand the fact that the can’t get the recognition of what they didn’t do! They feel insulted! Those poor little people!

I’m talking about the GOPers who are upset that they aren’t give the credit for the vaccination rollout. Funny thing, President Biden nor the Democrats are taking credit for something that had to be done! They just get things done! Yes, it is a huge deal, but Biden is doing his job, unlike the last administration who took credit for everything but nothing really ever got done! So Mitch and others, just sit down and shut up! You had your day in the sun and it was a disaster for several years! Look! Biden has done more in a month and half than “that former guy” did in 4 year and Biden isn’t gloating about either!

4. I disagree with your assessment that "nothing really ever got done"

I would argue that it was a BOOM era for huge corporations. Not so much for the average American though.

The rest of your post is spot on.

5. It must be hard attacking Biden as President

because of his humility. Unlike his predecessor, he does not personally take credit for every accomplishment, real or imagined. He uses "we", "us", and "you" a lot. He doesn't get publicly defensive or attack people who disagree with him and he speaks of his adversaries with dignity and respect.

Damn, if he keep THIS up, he will just have to wear a tan suit.

6. You have to get things done AND you have to make sure voters know about it.

To win in politics you have to do both.
