Biden got more progressive change through

He did not. He got more "bipartisan" changes, and we've lowered the bar for what that means

    Kutter points out that “Joe Biden is the first president in recent memory to press for significantly higher taxes on the very rich.”

    Individual tax rates did not change under Biden

    This couple with the tangible benefits provided through his America Recovery Act, the Building Back Better Initiative and Infrastructure Investment Act; could help Democrats in 2024 among swing voters

    None of these were progressive. They were all tax benefits and grants to big business, specifically in the tech industry. And these businesses were largely aligned with the Trump coalition.

    Also, Jesus Christ, please include a "Jump to Recipe" on this article so I can find your points without an hour of scrolling.
