"A plea to my Democratic friends: It’s time to start calling Joe Biden a great president. Not a good one. Not a better choice than Donald Trump. Joe Biden is a historically great president. Say it with passion backed by the conviction that it’s true.
Because it is."

This idea that Biden is a particularly amazing president is protesting way too much. Someone can strongly disapprove of Biden and still agree that he's the only rational choice on the ballot. That's certainly how I feel.
On election day, the bar that Biden needs to clear is Trump and there's no question he far surpasses that standard. Everyone who can vote, should. I volunteer to help people do just that.
But every other day, Biden needs to be held to a much higher standard.
The Biden admin was done a lot of good things, but there are problems. Ending the rail strike shows he's not as labor friendly as he says. Most importantly, support for Israel's genocide is a major failure. Trying to sweep these crimes under the rug is just dangerous.
