How's that war the Dems apparently want against China while we're still struggling with Russia panning out?
Not sure if you're being sarcastic? This country is soooo much better now than it was four years ago. The abortion thing sucks, but that's not bidens fault.

Well, lets go down the list:
1. Started proxie war with Russia, and is currently provoking China.
2. Shut down pipelines and did environment stuff as oil prices went out of control.
3. Pressured the FBI to act as personal gestapo against anyone and everyone, like Project Veritas (Who the ADL condemned for it)
4. Eroded freedom of expression by labeling anyone who disagrees with him as a "terrorist".
5. Backed ridiculous judicial reforms resulting in higher crime rates.
6. Fist bumped the reporter murdering Saudi leader, then begged for oil because he butchered local independence.
If Trump was in office, there would likely be no Russian invasion, because Trump can actually make deals instead of trying to beat or shame opposition.

1. Who started that war? Pretty sure Russia started that war.
2. You say "did environmental stuff" like it's a bad thing. It isn't. We only have one earth
3. This is just false.
4. Also false.
5. Care to give an example of this?
6. Wasn't trump the president when that happened? What did he do exactly?
If Trump was in office, Putin would have invaded Ukraine and trump would have been praising him on the sidelines. Biden's actions surrounding that invasion have been awesome. Two thumbs up. Definitely making the best of a terrible situation.
I'll be honest, I was expecting you to target different, more questionable actions by Joe. There are some. , But you didn't name anything questionable.
I for one wish Joe had reversed trump's plan to leave Afghanistan the way he did, and I think he relaxed Covid mitigations way too early.
But no, overall, the country is in way better shape today than we were under trump

Mark Zuckerberg outright admitted the FBI "warned" him about the Huntet Biden stuff as potential Russian disinformation.
That's running defense for Joe Biden. National security is in no way compromised, only the Biden family reputation is.
Yes, Russia started the war. The US did not help to dissuade them by refusing to accept their claims of security issues.
This is something Allen Greenspan said, ftr, not a right wing troll or disinformation. Russia was against missiles at the border, and against being surrounded by Nato if Ukraine joined. We ignored their concerns as if their security does not matter.
For context, remember why the Cuban Missile Crisis began.
Ill give cdtm one point. Which is we dont know for sure if Putin would have invaded with Trump in power. He MAY have negotiated something with Putin. But its speculation.

Thats literally one of the best things (if not the best) Biden has done. Dont let the war mongering media let you believe different.
Trump planned some stuff but never had the balls to withdraw in 5 years. Obama never withdrew either.
There was no better way. However long you left it the Taliban would have still taken over when you were out (not that we have the right to dictate to them who should be in power).
The bad parts (really bad) were the bombing and sanctions afterwards. Which I have no doubt was a reaction to media raging on how bad withdrawal was.

You know what isn't speculation? The fact that Trump spent 4 years bigging up Putin and undermining NATO. I'm sure none of that had any bearing on Putin's decision making with regards to whether to invade Ukraine or not.
Going purely by what he did in office, if he still was, he'd be on TV talking about there being "bad people on both sides" or he'd be funding Russia rather than Ukraine in the war.

Yeah, that and Lithuania, Belarus etc... That was the scary part...
When the Biden admin warned over and over that Russia was going to attack Ukraine, the Rightwing said he was "fear mongering over Russia".
After Russia invades, the Rightwing starts in "this shouldn't concern us", while slyly demonizing Ukraine.

Yup. Agreed with everything in the last few posts. Biden has strengthened NATO while trump was trying to destroy it. Anyone saying the U.S was better off with Trump must not have minded that.
How can Russia be mocked for its shit military where their carrier needs a tugboat, yet be a threat to western powers like America?
