    I think it's kind of an unconscious admission that the dems aren't really supposed to do anything, it's enough to try and fail but never actually challenge bourgeois power - so him "getting things done" is a dark vision of the dems (also Biden is responsible for these things passing but isnt responsible when dems do shitty things lol). And then libs like to imagine that any of these provisions will attack power, I guess capping some prices of drugs is actually an attack on unconstrained bourgeois power into something very slightly more constrained (of course, compare this to simply provisioning drugs based on need and using defence production act to manufacture them outside the market economy). So maybe this tiny little constraint in an otherwise neoliberal agenda is a dark version of Biden.
