In 2020, one of the main reasons I voted for Joe Biden was because I wanted trump out of office.
PERIOD.
Don't get me wrong: I knew Joe was a good guy, and he had a ton of useful experience in politics as well as in the White House, but he wasn't my first choice, and I wasn't expecting much.
But NOW I'm voting for Biden in November mainly because he blew my expectations of him all the way out of the damn water.
He's already the most legislatively successful President in the modern era, having signed key consequential bills into law, like the Infrastructure bill, the PACT Act, the CHIPs Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act.
Now, millions of Americans have insulin capped at $35/month.
The infrastructure bill is so good that Republicans who voted against it are clamoring to take credit for the funds going into their states.
He recovered and created a total of 15 million jobs. The last time unemployment was under 4% this long, we put a man on the moon for the first time.
Here's a new one, that not a lot of people are talking about, but it's a BFD: if you've ever had a flight delayed for hours or canceled, or lost your luggage, you'll love this: automatic compensation, within 20 days, and you don't even have to spend hours on the phone to make it happen.
He's gone after bullshit junk fees that companies charge us, death by a thousand cuts of mystery, mounting fees.
I prefer my President to be hard-working, compassionate, intelligent, and thoughtful.
I prefer my President to respect our NATO alliances, and the role we play in the world.
I prefer my President to respect our fallen soldiers, and not to see them as "suckers and losers."
I prefer my President who wants to leave the world, and his office, in better shape than he found it.
I prefer President Biden. 🙏💪
From 1940 to 1979:
Worker Productivity ⬆️ 118%
Worker Compensation ⬆️ 107%
Then Reagan happened.
From 1980-2019:
Worker Productivity ⬆️ 60%
Worker Compensation ⬆️ 14%
Republicans have fixed the system so that profits from increased productivity go to shareholders, NOT workers.

In his speech, Biden struck a balance between cautious optimism and laying out what his agenda is for the next two years to help the American people. No doubt this enraged GOP leadership, but this is what he ran to do: move the US forward.
So it turns out that the guy who got the most votes in presidential history also knows a thing or two about exceeding expectations in the midterms as well.

Boomer: But why can't the slackers pay for college & pay off their loans like we did?
You can go to school and spend years trying to learn about great marketing.
Or you can spend a few minutes watching Steve Jobs - all marketers should listen:
