    Eh he's already the President and things have gone to absolute shiite. Civil unrest (which he takes no responsibility for but fans the flames of). When Biden and Obama were in charge similar issues in the likes of Ferguson never descended in nationwide chaos for months on end.

    Absolutely brutal Covid-19 response (22 millions lost their jobs and 185k dead in 6 months and counting which he takes no responsibility for). Under Obama-Biden they dealt with swine flu (c.12,000 deaths over 2 years) and Ebola (2 deaths). Trump called for Obama to resign because of Ebola in the US where 2 people died! The hypocrisy is staggering really.

    So yeah Biden probably knows how to be a president and handle crises better.

    Took me awhile to find my favorite FLOTUS story, from around 2013 when the #IMPOTUS was banging around about birtherism and whatnot. I think the interview in question was on Oprah. Wish I could find it:

    "Would you have married Donald if her were not rich? Melania's sharp answer was: Would he have married me if I were not beautiful?"

    Pretty much defines their relationship.


  • Registered Users Posts: 468 ✭✭1990sman


    obama? hahahahahahaha

    thanks for that.

    but seriously, these are unprecedented times (altho technically all time is) and trump is just a product of the times so who better to helm their wheel than someone who has evolved and adapted with current times. biden is a dinosaur in comparison. altho i like dinosaurs. sorry dinos

    She got what she was after - a well-financed child and a US citizenship for her and eventually her parents (one of those things the tGOP is rabidly against for everyone else of course.) They sleep in separate rooms, he boldly cheats on her, basically they're a caricature of a married couple.

    Under my Administration, veterans’ unemployment recently reached its lowest rate in nearly 20 years.

    And more Recently bbla bla bla...
    Almost 3.9 million Americans have been lifted off food stamps since the election.

    You can tell where this has gone lately
    Retail sales surged last month, up another 6 percent over last year.

    Has been flat actually
    Signed the biggest package of tax cuts and reforms in history. After tax cuts, over $300 billion poured back in to the U.S. in the first quarter alone.

    Has added $7T in debt since taking office and is running a $3T deficit this year so far.
    Helped win U.S. bid for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

    which have been disasters
    Record number of regulations eliminated.

    that’s not an accomplishment when some include regulations on the amount of lead in drinking water.
    Enacted regulatory relief for community banks and credit unions.

    Those pesky regulations set up to ensure we don’t have another Great Recession
    Obamacare individual mandate penalty GONE.

    Which was a judicial feat having nothing to do with the Trump administration.
    My Administration is providing more affordable healthcare options for Americans through association health plans and short-term duration plans.

    Lol no
    Last month, the FDA approved more affordable generic drugs than ever before in history. And thanks to our efforts, many drug companies are freezing or reversing planned price increases.

    That hasn’t happened yet.
    We reformed the Medicare program to stop hospitals from overcharging low-income seniors on their drugs—saving seniors hundreds of millions of dollars this year alone.

    Not familiar with the legislation referenced but given the list I’m sure it’s not as rosy as led on.
    Signed Right-To-Try legislation.

    Secured $6 billion in NEW funding to fight the opioid epidemic.

    And dismantled the apparatus for handling a PANdemic
    We have reduced high-dose opioid prescriptions by 16 percent during my first year in office.

    Yep, so far on this list about the only consistent accomplishment.

    Signed VA Choice Act and VA Accountability Act, expanded VA telehealth services, walk-in-clinics, and same-day urgent primary and mental health care.

    The VA choice act of was signed in 2014 by Obama

    He did sign the VA accountability act though, decried as a ”massive failure”[/quote]


    Increased our coal exports by 60 percent; U.S. oil production recently reached all-time high.

    United States is a net natural gas exporter for the first time since 1957.

    Withdrew the United States from the job-killing Paris Climate Accord.

    Cancelled the illegal, anti-coal, so-called Clean Power Plan.

    Furthering our climate change is not accomplishment.
    Secured record $700 billion in military funding; $716 billion next year.

    seeing that hundreds of billions are signed for the military every year I fail to see how this was noteworthy
    NATO allies are spending $69 billion more on defense since 2016.

    Shaking people down for money whoo hoo
    Process has begun to make the Space Force the 6th branch of the Armed Forces.

    A vanity project
    Confirmed more circuit court judges than any other new administration.

    Confirmed Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch and nominated Judge Brett Kavanaugh.

    Considering the breakneck pace they have gone nuclear in confirmations this is hardly an accomplishment but an erosion of bipartisanship. Most of those judges are Trump policital appointees passed along party lines, some have never even tried a case and some are not even APA certified.
    Withdrew from the horrible, one-sided Iran Deal.

    Which has encouraged them to continue on with nuclear activity...
    Moved U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem.
    which has stoked increased tensions in the Middle East
    Protecting Americans from terrorists with the Travel Ban, upheld by Supreme Court.

    It doesn’t protect us it makes us a target.
    Issued Executive Order to keep open Guantanamo Bay.

    It doesn’t protect us it makes us a target
    Concluded a historic U.S.-Mexico Trade Deal to replace NAFTA. And negotiations with Canada are underway as we speak.

    Yet to really be seen what if anything this will accomplish
    Reached a breakthrough agreement with the E.U. to increase U.S. exports.

    Seems vague and procedural.
    Imposed tariffs on foreign steel and aluminum to protect our national security.

    A trade war that hurt American businesses including a bailout of farmers. I can tell you first hand volatility in metals has caused financial turmoil in industry.
    Imposed tariffs on China in response to China’s forced technology transfer, intellectual property theft, and their chronically abusive trade practices.

    And yet he still does business there.
    Net exports are on track to increase by $59 billion this year.

    Oh I’m sure that aged well
    Improved vetting and screening for refugees, and switched focus to overseas resettlement

    Report out this week that El Paso detention facilities are systematically sexually assaulting children so let’s not pretend this is an accomplishment. We certainly didn’t screen thousands of travelers returning from China in the start of the year...
    We have begun BUILDING THE WALL. Republicans want STRONG BORDERS and NO CRIME. Democrats want OPEN BORDERS which equals MASSIVE CRIME.

    And still very few new miles of wall. Lots of replacement or upgraded barriers in existing miles of wall tho. And Mexico hasn’t paid for a penny of it.

    Next time if you’re going to plagiarize from somewhere best make sure it’s not a heaping pile of garbage.

    Obama set the ground for the current unrest. He refused to back the police when ever a contentious shooting occured, and as to his foreign policey, it was a disaster. Say what you like, Trump gives the Chinese a lot more headaches than Obama ever did, or Biden ever would.
    Looking forward to the celebrations in early November, #4moreyears

    There's going to be huge levels of voter suppression by the Republicans over the coming weeks. The Iowa county that they did this is in Linn County - the city of Cedar Rapids is located in Linn County. Like many urban areas it is a Democrat leaning city and voted for Clinton in 2016.

    All they need to do is suppress the vote in certain urban areas in a number of swing states and it could be decisive.
