I mean, Clinton just happened to be the ass in the seat when the Dotcom boom hit...
Every economic action he took led us to today's shit show, especially campaign finance reform
And Biden was the ass in the seat after COVID.
Stop acting like people who actively and quantifiably worse were great just because their poor policy wasn't bad enough to stop things they had zero control over.
Blind worship is for Republicans
Clinton raised taxes on the wealthy and cut defense spending, also boosted the earned income tax credit. All of which helped get money moving. But Gramm-Leach-Bliley was a Bad Idea, and NAFTA deeply flawed.
If you're not familiar with the Two Santas Strategy, one of the major forces behind why the US has been increasingly ineffective and crumbling for over 40 years, give this a read.

Huh, I never knew Clinton was the president to lead us into a two decade plus war we lost and wasted trillions and trillions of dollars on.
Edit: Fuck the Clintons BTW, but don't act like it was just libs to lead us to where we are today.
