Students*, August 2024: Harris supports genocide! Voting is a sCaM to keep the working class sUbSeRviEnT!!
Students*, December 2025: . . . Typical!
* some students, obvs. Others, less so.
You mean the administration that gave up on student loans the moment they received the first push back? Democrats also have no plan for the student loan crisis.
Genuinely not trying to be a dick, how did they "give up on student loans" but also Trump has to "move to end" forgiveness plans? Sounds directly contradictory from the outside.
It sounds directly contradictory from the inside too. Biden didn't "give up" he just didn't take the most radical approach that many on the left wanted him to take (including me). When the courts shut down his original program, he started to forgive a bunch of more specific but smaller groups of loans. It never totalled close to his original attempt, but it was significant. He could have tried to do the original by a different legal justification, but he never tried it, probably because it would have opened the door to even more loan forgiveness.
Forgiving the loans that are out does nothing to solve the problem though. It would just require another forgiveness in 15 years.
Agreed.
