Biden backers ‘not seeing the results’ a year into his term

NEW YORK (AP) — Just over a year ago, millions of energized young people, women, voters of color and independents joined forces to send Joe Biden to the White House. But 12 months into his presidency, many describe a coalition in crisis.

Leading voices across Biden’s diverse political base openly decry the slow pace of progress on key campaign promises. The frustration was especially pronounced this past week after Biden’s push for voting rights legislation effectively stalled, intensifying concerns in his party that fundamental democratic principles are at risk and reinforcing a broader sense that the president is faltering at a moment of historic consequence.

“People are feeling like they’re getting less than they bargained for when they put Biden in office. There’s a lot of emotions, and none of them are good,” said Quentin Wathum-Ocama, president of the Young Democrats of America. “I don’t know if the right word is ‘apoplectic’ or ‘demoralized.’ We’re down. We’re not seeing the results.”

For now, virtually none of the groups that fueled Biden’s 2020 victory are happy.

Young people are frustrated that he hasn’t followed through on vows to combat climate change and student debt. Women are worried that his plans to expand family leave, child care and universal pre-K are stalled as abortion rights erode and schools struggle to stay open. Moderates in both parties who once cheered Biden’s centrist approach worry that he’s moved too far left. And voters of color, like those across Biden’s political base, are furious that he hasn’t done more to protect their voting rights.

“I hope he fails”.

That’s weird - I see all kinds of results from Biden and the stolen election. All bad.

[alternatives?]

Minority voters have trouble voting. What a fake statement.

[NittanyLion]

On a positive note for the White House, Biden’s support remains strong among voters who favor soaring inflation, supply chain shortages, foreign policy embarrassments and high infection rates.

[TalBlack]

Biden is on the way out. They seem desperate.

[NWFree]

Libtards plan to steal the vote is in jeopardy 🤪

Boo hoo

[BradyLS]

Three more years of bait-n-switch c’min’ right up!

[MRadtke]

They are. Which makes me wonder what they’re planning next.

Biden's "centrist approach"? Ass Press is stroking us again. First thing in office was to shut down the Keystone pipeline, bleating about environmental concerns but in fact killing jobs while lining his wealthy donors' pockets. You have the foreign policy debacles in Afghanistan, Iran, and with the French over the Australian submarine betrayal. Open corruption through Hunter, border disaster that finally devolved into reinstating Trump's policies while simultaneously running covert airline flights of illegals into major cities. Mask mandates, vaccine mandates, uncontrolled inflation, empty shelves, and the list goes on, all run by a fake president who emerges from his hole less often than the annual groundhog and with even less to say, and a staff of utter incompetents whose first priority is to find someone else to blame for the failure du jour. What's not to like?

Beat me to it. High food and gas prices, medical tyranny, lost jobs. I thought they would be gleeful with the results but libtards are never happy. They want complete poverty and suffering.

Have Biden’s backers forgotten about the $300 monthly payments for the rugrats already?

Almost $2 trillion doesn’t buy much gratitude from Democrats.

[eyedigress]

Dammit!

My student loans I gave to my libtard university is still my responsibility!

What kind of crap is that???

[DouglasKC]

What are they talking about? He’s exceeding their wildest dreams. America is more totalitarian. We have shortages of food all over America. Inflation is running rampant. He has made us non-energy independent again. He is criminalizing any one opposed to leftist government policies. He has sunk the nation into a debt that will never be overcome. He is China’s bitch. The list goes on and on. This is exactly what the left voted for.

[SaxxonWoods]

I don’t care who you are, you can’t please liberals.

[pas]

It is too bad the rest of us are seeing the results. Every time we go to the store or fill up at the pump.

AP says voters of color. AP refuses to use the politically racist term Black

Can't do that when you only have 50 Senators. Liberals thought that Biden had a mandate when he never had one in the first place. The American people elected him in the office but never asked him to enact socialist policies. Fortunately, Manchin and Sinema realized that. But Biden did get a lot of pork so as a result inflation is going crazy now.

We’re not seeing the results

/\

Have they looked in his diaper ?

Same results outside his diaper.

Crap.

Exciting results of only one year of Biden.....

California FReepers are going to drool over the cheap gas in that picture. Also prices went up right after the image was taken.

As for Brandon (real one) “You never know you’re going to be a household name star. I happens so fast.”
