What would Trump have done at this point of his 2nd term that would be worse than the Biden presidency?


Well, he has better approval poll numbers on his worst day measured that are still better than Trump ever did in all four years. So its safe to say even in his first few months he is vastly better than Trump based on nothing than approval ratings.... (Then his best days are vastly better)
(Not to mention he received more votes than any candidate in history).

Outside of conspiracy circles nobody thinks that the Biden Presidency is bad. He is being pretty moderate, he is being attacked by the far left for being too centrist (on student debt, dugs, crime, etc....), he is being attacked by the far right for stealing the election or something. So that is probably a sign that he is doing a good job (generally if you upset the far left and the far right it means that you are a solid moderate, so that is another positive indicator).

And Yes. I believe Biden is too old and probably demented. The Dem party in your country put up some really rubbish candidates.
I believe he was referred to as 'a house plant, but still better than trump.


I was thinking about that story when I read the original article.

Sometimes help comes in the form of a person. Such as Churchilll and FDR.

As for the house plant being better than Trump:

In only his first two years in office, despite constant desperate attempts by the democrat party to sabotage him, Trump gave us our best economy in fifty years. Lowest unemployment across every demographic. Highest inrease in real income, which had stagnated for four decades. 2% annual average inflation over four years. 5.4% so far this year under Biden. Turned the U.S. into a net exporter of oil. Ten million people lifted out of poverty. Reduced the rate of poverty by by 17% to the lowest level in fifty years. Not even the $23 trillion wasted in the lost war on poverty over the past half century made a dent in the poverty rate. Trump did it in eighteen months. Reduced illegal border crossings to less than one-tenth of what we’re seeing under Biden. Used his business acumen and faith in American capitalism and ordered one billion vaccine doses from six different companies while their vaccines were still in clinical trial and got two vaccines in only nine months, when the average is ten to twelve years. Saving millions of lives. Possibly yours. First President to keep us out of war in the past forty years. Established new trade agreements with Mexico and Canada. Brokered peace agreements in 2020 between Israel, U.A.E., Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco.

Reality
Thanks Obama
Just has Biden is lucky to manage a pent up demand economy
Trump was lucky that Obama did all the hard work to recover the economy

Why do you give Trump credit for his economy but dont give Biden the credit for his
I'm thrilled Dow just hit 35k
If Trump was President, Tanko would give him all the credit. Because its Biden, Tanko gives no credit

Logic and reality. Neither President should be given credit

And he did that with the media totally having his back when they were attacking Trump with 90% negative stories the entire time.

Biden has been a joke so far. His presidency will in the end be declared a disaster. He cannot handle what is coming down the pike.
The President is a fink.

Rep Ilhan Omar Brags at Global Communist Meeting, ‘Biden is Giving Us Everything We Want!’

Quote:
“It has been incredible in so many ways for us progressives to have built a massive movement…And for us to do almost little to zero work in pushing on those main policies in regards to the economy, healthcare, and infrastructure”

Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar joined a gathering of European communists to discuss methods to build big government in Europe. During a discussion held in June titled “Strengthening Public Sector in the Post-Pandemic Era” Omar bragged that “progressives” like herself have had to do “almost little to zero work” in getting their agenda items passed under the Biden Administration.
