No they don't. Biden isn't anyone's first pick, but he's hands-down better than the alternative.

Y'all keep saying that but I have yet to see any of you point any actual material difference between Trump's presidency vs during Biden's presidency.

What changed after the transition from Trump to Biden except rhetoric? As far as I know, oppressed minorities kept having their rights taken away 1 by 1 the same as before, police kept being over funded the same as before, migrants from the southern border kept being detained in literal concentration camps at the border the same as before, things kept getting more financially difficult for the average American every day the same as before, big polluter corporations kept polluting without consequences the same as before, the military budget kept getting ramped up every year the same as before, what is different in the real world outside the clown-show that is your political system? Where the fuck does that "not good but definitely better" goes when you stop going by the words of these known serial liars for to seconds and take a peak at what as changed in the actual lives of the American people?

The only difference I see is that the Republicans is taking an active approach and pass laws directly whereas the Democrats is more passive and like to let the Republicans and other far right parties pass laws while standing there awkwardly and pretending they can do nothing about it.
