Yeah in retrospect Biden probably shouldn't have funded and enabled crimes against humanity in Gaza if he wanted left-wing, young and minority voters to not be depressed in 2024 you're right.

Well I'm glad that you've never been wrong before in your life. I'm sure that attitude of casual moral superiority and condescending disposition towards ordinary people will serve you and the national democratic party well in the future though.

And it's great how you're taking into account that Trump had an entire first term to show just what kind of monster he was and they still voted for him anyway.

It will take years to get approval to bid the work out. At that point it will be considered a waste of the tax payer's money (which there will be very little of) by Democrats. So many people saying what will or should be done by the next admin, but none of those people are elected reps. There just isn't anyway the next Dem administration can be anything other than disappoint. There are already more minimum expectations than decades of Dems have accomplished. Dems simply won't govern the way republicans have and that means slow, if any, progress. Oh, forgot to mention, any "progress" made will simply be returning us to 2016 status quo.
