I mean, this seems like the left's best attempt: https://oliverwillis.com/joe-biden-a...the-full-list/

Sure, there are items double- or even triple-counted, stuff that actually points to destruction or failure rather than accomplishment, and stuff that purports to award accolades for merely breathing, but it's an attempt. There may be a couple of small things to be teased out that are worthy of the world's shortest golf clap, but it appears more indicative that both the administration and its most rabid water carriers have accepted a state of being that ranges from unremarkable to mentally bereft, and that's before the more damaging and insidious actions and policy proposals are ever taken into consideration.

Make no mistake though, the far-left's desire to instantiate an anti-enlightenment pedagogy throughout the land, their thirst to consolidate power into an unaccountable Federal bureaucracy, and their belief that facilitating national insolvency is somehow good, will no doubt be added to this list as they're achieved. Government is your God now, and its self-professed prophets and moral betters will decide for you, for you are incapable and unworthy.

And there's the rub. I vote for how does the country benefit.

I voted for Biden even though I cannot stand the man. There's a lot going on I don't agree with.

My vote was for the environment and the courts. There is no question the Ds care more, tho not much, about poisoned air and water left in the wake by business.

IMO, if business can't do their job without damaging God's green earth, they have no business in business. That trade off for jobs is not effective. And all of us have to pick up the tab for what little clean up there is.

It was OK with this republican party to dump fracking fluid into the rivers and streams. That along with all the other stuff including embalming fluid was too much.

Yeah, and started by listing the Afghanistan withdrawal, as a freaking accomplishment. So it was obvious from the start this was a disingenuous attempt by the OP

Exactly. The TDS afflicted still rage about Trump's tweets and his exaggerations about crowd size, or the numbers of jobs he created, etc... But those things have absolutely no impact on anything then, and they have absolutely no impact on anything today. So in the grand scheme of things, personal like or dislike of a president, and our displeasure over their personality quirks are trivial and minor.

Decades from now, historians writing about Trump are not going to obsess over his tweets, or because he mocked Rosie O'Donnell's appearance. They will focus on his foreign and domestic policies, his trade deals, defeating ISIS, etc... all of which were very good for the nation and the world. Historians will also see thru the political animus of the dems, and see the Trump impeachments as unjust and unwarranted.

Biden will be remembered for his horrible Afghanistan withdrawal, the border and immigration disaster, and possibly for his illegal mandates, which went against current law, and defied warnings that they were illegal by the SCOTUS

Right now America is at a tipping point, it very well may not survive what the left has done. I don't see how we can possibly survive the damage from demented Biden, but perhaps, with any luck, we will get another Trump type who will, once again, save our country from Marxism.
Hey Grumpy ,

You do realize that under Trump we had COVID raveging the country. Cities on fire. Scandal after scandal after scandal. But you think he was the greatest thing since sliced bread..... That's fine that you worship the guy but to come on here and tell us that his supporters didn't worship and defend everything that numbskull did is being dishonest.

The selfishness of man knows no bounds. They would dump raw sewage and chemicals in your backyard if they could get away with it. All for the persuit of generational wealth. Yes. One party is ok with that and their supporters all to willing to defend it.

Of course this board is filled with people hating on Biden. Many of the members thought the Trump administration was the greatest thing since sliced bread. They vowed revenge when Biden got elected - that they would do to Biden what they believe was done to Trump by progressives - constant criticism. Some criticism is warranted, but this board is over-the-top because it’s dominated by political partisans who voted for Trump.
Again, why do you even care? Worry about your own country. It's not like Canada doesn't have problems.

Besides, you've got it all wrong. It was Obama who drove up the debt. Trump tried to get a grip on it.
