Considering Biden is getting student loan forgiveness done, while sanders has not

Sanders is the chair of the committee in charge of student loans. He is also not the president.

Exactly. He’s not the president. And the person who is is getting the job done. Because sanders was not able to turn his candidacy into affect. And the Democratic Party “elites” put sanders in the role that he currently holds.

The two parties aren’t the same. Nuance about how to deal with the educational crisis of cost is not the enemy. Decades of neglecting education entirely is.

Btw: just so we are avoiding history revisionism. Student load forgiveness is being handled by the executive branch. Not the senate.
