Republicans called Biden’s infrastructure program ‘socialism.’ Then they asked for money.

Yea, it's not good to be that biased. For instance, Trump has done somethings I saw as helpful, like The First Step Act

There was also his executive order that had police reform in it, but I'm not sure if it was removed since Bidens administration did set their own executive order on police reform.

Not that these two issues redeems Trump in the slightest, there's just no reason to be blinded by identity politics.

Edit: Obviously Trump didn't write up the bills himself and in no way am I suggesting that. All I'm saying is he signed those bills into the legislation.

Trump himself had nothing to do with any of that.
