    By 50 years, you mean since May 2019?

    Turning the economy around ?

    Trump inherited a perfectly healthy economy.

    Just like the last three Republican POTUS before him for that matter.

    And he left a recession, like every Republican POTUS since Bush 41...

    Since 1989, recession, unemployment, wars and the disastrous management of a pandemic are the four specialties of the Conservatives in this country.

    If you consider the pundits on the right who downplayed COVID to be on the left's payroll, I guess so.

    If it wasn't sad and extremely scary for the country...well, it is just that. Sad and scary for this nation to have elected a man who is nothing more than a puppet leader and our enemies know this. And in the line of succession an elected official that would mostly laugh when asked about the war in Ukraine since she laughs about everything (this, due to the fact that she has zero capability to answer questions with any level of leadership).

    Yet it was Obama who stated, where is Trump going to find all these new jobs, is he going to wave his magic wand?

    Trump's Policy "Magic Wand" Boosts Manufacturing Jobs 399% In First 26 Months Over Obama's Last 26
    https://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckd...6-months-over-obamas-last-26/?sh=6088a09c20a6

    Coupled with HISTORICAL low unemployment numbers.

    • America gained 7 million NEW jobs – more than three times government experts’ projections.
    How many NEW jobs has Biden produced> ZERO
    • Middle-Class family income increased nearly $6,000 – more than five times the gains during the entire previous administration.
    • The unemployment rate reached 3.5 percent, the lowest in a half-century.
    • Unemployment rates for African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, Native Americans, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and those without a high school diploma all reached record lows.
    • Unemployment for women hit its lowest rate in nearly 70 years.
    • Lifted nearly 7 million people off of food stamps.
    • Poverty rates for African Americans and Hispanic Americans reached record lows.
    So much for your Trump theories. History speaks for itself

    A recession created by Democrats and supported by 578 riots destroying American businesses and locking down cities.

    The Democrats choose Biden as their nominee because he was a safe bet to beat Trump. There could have been other reasons, if so, they’re all secondary. The goal was to come up with a nominee acceptable to independents, who decide national elections. Hillary Clinton wasn’t. In 2016 57% of independents viewed Trump negatively, but 70% viewed Hillary that way. Hence, Trump won the independent vote and the White House.

    In 2020, 60% of independents viewed Trump negatively while 48% viewed Biden negatively. Biden won. I suppose the bottom line in my view was Biden wasn’t chosen for his leadership abilities, not even on his stances on the issues, just to beat Trump. He was chosen to win over independents Clinton lost. Biden was successful. For the Democrats and for independents, it was mission accomplished. Biden had a reputation as a moderate democrat, he behaved and acted like an adult, that was all that was needed back in Nov 2020. Getting someone who behaved presidential and was perceived as a grownup back into the Oval Office.

    I think Biden is now expendable. He did what he was chosen to do. Beat Trump. Now we go from there or from here to whatever the future holds. Good choice or a bad choice today? That’s irrelevant, he was a good choice in Nov 2020, a successful choice according to a majority of Americans. Lost or not, Biden did what we wanted him to do at the time he was chosen. That’s all that counts until 2024.

    You say "Hook, line....... and Sinker" and I say Delusions of grandeur on your part. Obama literally trolled Biden and even ignored the chit out of him every time Biden tried to get the Presidents attention. Heck, Kamala received more attention from the real President than VP Dementia Joe.

    If anyone doesn't think Biden is lost and not playing with a full deck, see below -- the 78 old draft dodger seems ready for war in a hands on way. Notice the "If I got to go to war" rather than the "If I have to go to war." Apparently by using poor grammar Biden thinks he is appealing to the working man. Sort of like Mrs. Clinton saying "I don't feel no ways [tired]:

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...-go-to-war-i-m-going-with-you-guys/ar-AAVVW7n

    "If I got to go to war, I'm going with you guys. I mean it," he added to thunderous applause from the union members in attendance. "

    "Thunderous applause," lol

    More jobs than workers because people are still getting paid not to work.

    I've determined what's truly setting the wingers off about that event with Barack.... It's the people walking around with smiles on their faces instead of cowering in fear...

    Confusing, isn't it??

    You deny that the economy is getting better ?

    Yes, things are not the best right now, even after the growth that Biden has created. BUT, remember that the reason he started off so low was because of the economy that was left to him by Donald Trump. So while you're trying to come at Joe, you leave out that he was handed such a crappy economy that even with historical growth, its still not great. Gee, I wonder how things got so bad that even record growth couldn't make it better......hmmmm, who could that be......hmmmmmm

    The economy got bad because of the government's asinine lockdown policies.

    It's out there, mostly generated by right/nut leaning sources, but it just takes a bit of common sense and research to recognize and avoid it...

    But it's not everywhere, so no, as usual, he's not right

    Mine were in the link I provided.... it's not different, it just takes the scenes to the finish, instead of cutting without context...

    Oh well.... I certainly wouldn't expect you to care either way, but it is amusing to watch...

    Oh, so they aren't doctored, they just showed the scenes where Biden is wondering around aimlessly.
    Thats what I thought.

    Too funny.

    Question: If Brandon got to go to war, will he grant himself a SIXTH deferment?

    Total strawman fallacy and attempted deflection. This thread was about Biden being ignored and looking lost and how pathetic that is.
