I didn't think he would target our economic independence so hard and so soon.

He has order troop surges in Iraq:

He has moved to increase insulin prices with a 90 day freeze (for some reason).
https://news.bloomberglaw.com/pharma...le-until-march

He has rescinded the order that blocked Chinese supplier for manufacturing electrical equipment for our public grids.
https://creativedestructionmedia.com...us-power-grid/

There are suppliers elsewhere, but not as cheap as in china. But rather than promoting domestic production, he wants to allow financial markets greater control of our energy grid.

He passed an order that will allow transgender women (biological males) to play in girl sports, without 'investigating' the repercussions as he is supposedly doing with everything else.

He once again canceled the Keystone XL pipeline, which for now means less available jobs, and that the oil must be bought from elsewhere, or shipped along rail lines (less safe).

He has received no push back from the republican party, and the media is celebratory of all his actions.

The main goal of this administration was to raise the COL, and then increase the influence of corporations on the job market so people have less control over their finances and consumption habits can be better controlled by financial markets.

Then, his administration at inauguration riled up people into believing their was a fascist coup at work, so some 20,000+ active troops would be sent to DC.

Rather than plan to house them, they were left in the parking lot, and now Covid is spreading among them super fast.

And this was all for a performative action against "domestic terrorists" meant to garner support.

People in this country thought Trump embarrassed them, but do any regret voting for Biden?

edit: Also note, his policy of counting illegals in the population census will change representation in congress by state, and bolster one party.

The promotion of illegal migration lowers the average wages of blue collar workers making life even harder.

Nope. I've been on a couple group zooms for business since the swearing in, and there's a palpable relief. In groups where we have never in the past talked about politics or religion, I'm hearing people quoting Bible verses about the dawn of a new day, of light after the darkness. Complete relief Trump is finally gone and a new brighter day is dawning.

Don't forget Biden stopped border wall construction, stopped enforcement against criminal illegal aliens, and the ban on muslim terrorist immigration. This guy is batting zero.

Not voting for Trump against Biden is essentially a half vote for Biden though.

That kind of logic is what helps keep both these parties hanging on to their duopoly.
