I will grant libs that if harris won these policies would have been rolled out more slowly. It might have even waited four years for Harris to lose her re-election bid and then whatever GOP head will institute them then. I will argue that having Trump do this policies increases the likelihood libs will fight against them. So as far as liberal activism goes having Trump in office is better than a random democrat or republican. Ultimately it is unimportant cause we known Trump didn’t singlehandedly author these policies or push the rest of the government into applying them.
This was solidly my argument before Trump took office, it’s been a little harder to see since then bc he’s been worse than his first term, but I think I still do lean towards this.
Biden was far, far worse than Trump 1. Biden did evil shit on a level Trump 1 couldn’t dream of, and faced no opposition. When Trump 1 did shit way more mild than what Biden did, like the travel ban, the libs showed the fuck up and he backed down.
I guess my bad for thinking past performance would be indicative of future results.
That’s the thing though. The only thing we can really put on trump are the vibes. He is ostensibly the most popular politican of the moment so society was ready for this moment and it would have happened regardless sof who was in office you know.

I’m not sure what makes you say that? His approval rating is low and has always been low.
Is that just based on the fact that he won the presidential election? He didn’t win that because he was popular, he won because he wasn’t Joe Biden and Kamala was trying to be Joe Biden.
Name someone more popular? His rizz defines the current moment in politics.
People like him because he represents anti establishment thought and also the familiar establishment vibes. They like he is saying the quiet parts out loud.
I am not praising the man but he is a WWE hall of fame wrestler. It is good to see what works.

I think the true social damage of Biden, beyond the material, was that he got liberals accustomed to defending fascist policies
