Nope. He ran a campaign promising to crack down on financial predators, then he got into office, bailed out those predators and gave them get-out-of-jail-free cards as they foreclosed on 10 million families. Then 200+ counties that voted for Obama voted for Trump.
Well, see, because he was Black he had to be perfect. And since he wasn’t perfect, he (checks notes) betrayed us.

Rich people don’t hold student debt, they were able to afford school.
Student debt is held by those who come from working class families and couldn’t afford to pay the tuition.
Student debt shouldn’t exist. It should be free to go to college, just like other public schools.
