I think they'll get slaughtered anyways, but if they do some sort of anemic student debt relief, the slaughter will be used to argue against progressive policy. The one saving grace of the Democrats doing nothing is that they'll lose spectacularly and it'll be difficult for them to pretend that it's because they went too far to the left.

no. no chance FDR2 gets branded as not far enough to the left. once again, lib establishment will take any good biden policies (uh, afghanistan, maybe debt relief) and blame his loss on those.
Maybe that's why the moratorium was stretched to the fall, after which they can spring a surprise and cancel X amount of debt, hoping that it will help stem the tide. Perhaps so that the closer it is to the midterms, the more it'll stay in the public's memory. Like that would be the absolute best case scenario with this band of DNC crooks, and even if it does go like that, it probably won't be enough. Inflation continues to do a number on the poor, and Jerome Powell is panicking
Good god they're going to get slaughtered in the midterms if they don't actually do some sort of student debt relief.
:gui-better: :sicko-wholesome:
Not that kind of slaughter :sicko-wistful:

student debt relief is not going to even move the needle
