While Biden is publicly promising to curtail big banks’ excesses, Biden staffers are privately “reassuring industry leaders that he won’t focus on the issue while in office,” the Washington Post reported this morning in two separate articles.

As one investment banker described Biden campaign calls to financiers, “They basically said, ‘Listen, this is just an exercise to keep the [Elizabeth] Warren people happy, and don’t read too much into it.’”

Specifically, the Biden campaign is disavowing a number of the former vice president’s progressive policy proposals which are displeasing big banks, most notably his push to allow consumers to set up bank accounts through the Federal Reserve and access banking services at the U.S. Post Office.

How do we know that the Warren people and not the bankers are the ones getting played here? Still, hopefully Biden keeps his word, or perhaps more accurately is kept to it. We do know though that Donald Trump will be much worse in virtually every way than Biden, and the only way to stop Trump winning again is to actually vote for Biden.

Well, we could check Biden's 36 years of voting record in the Senate and his 8 years as VP to have a pretty good idea what his real positions are, or we could go with some things on his website that his own campaign are telling the people Biden has always sided with to ignore.

Well, he had 36 years in the Senate and 8 years as VP, so I think we have a good idea.

It's totally impossible for anyone to ever change their mind over the course of 50 years.

Obviously Biden has changed his mind on some issues like amending the constitution to overturn Roe v. Wade, but it seems pretty clear that he'll be favorable to Wall Street on the issues mentioned here.
