| Topic | Pentagon cancels all construction contracts for Trump border wall |

As much as people bitched about Trump trying to "erase Obama's legacy," Biden has gone a lot further and faster in reversing Trump-era policies yet... not a peep! Have you considered that maybe, just maybe, it's not about "erasing legacies" or any similar pointless attribution of glory to basic government work, and instead about doing good/bad things to the country? Nobody cares about those specific aspects of Obama's legacy for the sake of preserving a legacy, they care about it because they feel those were good changes and that undoing them is a step backwards. Similarly, reversing harmful Trump-era policies is felt to be a good thing, and the complete worthlessness of the concept of "Trump's legacy" means that legacy's preservation doesn't even factor into that value judgement. It only looks hypocritical if you treat politics like cheering for your favourite football team. Pay any attention at all to the practical reality of the matter, and that impression falls apart immediately. --- This is my signature.
