Why is Biden a bad president?

[redbeer]

Again, not sure what you are talking about. The Republicans in congress knew he was a dangerous criminal. The evidence was obvious. They were just too afraid to do their job and hold him accountable.

"Just because actions meet a standard of impeachment does not mean it is in the best interest of the country to remove a President from office ...Can anyone doubt that at least half of the country would view his removal as illegitimate — as nothing short of a coup d’état? It is difficult to conceive of any scheme Putin could undertake that would undermine confidence in our democracy more than removal would."
-Marco Rubio (R)

So basically he is saying that the senate knew he was a criminal but did not convict him because they were cowed by his delusional base- not because the case was not proven adequately. It was a purely political, not legal decision.

You seem to be confusing that for "they didn't find any wrong-doing".

Lol, "knew he was a dangerous criminal" and "evidence was obvious"......what are you talking about? The left was impeaching Trump before even being sworn into office.....Hillary, her campaign, Obama's administration, the FBI, the CIA, the MSM ALL were intentionally with direct intent to remove President Trump.....it was nothing but a "coup" attempt and couldn't be anything else.

The "Russia Collusion Delusion" was in full attack mode during his first press conference while being the President elect, if memory has forgotten. This attack went full bore wide open for over three years.....it was hours, daily, weekly, monthly talking about on the msm everyday......they never let up on the propaganda, the false narratives and the outright lies. The left and msm had words and phrases they each repeated daily to keep the delusion alive and well.

We now know, today, they were ALL lies and people are being arrested for this fiasco, as should, for it was a direct attack upon our democracy, using governmental offices for purposeful attacks on political opponents......it is just beginning as the house of cards fall.....others will face justice as it's coming for them and running or hiding behind more narratives will not stop the wheels of truth and justice.

Amazingly, it was the DNC and the Hillary campaign who colluded with Russia.......

A little funny though how it’s only Trump’s people ending up in jail one by one. It’s starting to look like a mob investigation- working its way up slowly up the hierarchy to The Godfather. Those Dems must be really powerful! So unfair!

All of the Trumpworld Figures Who’ve Been Arrested, Indicted, or Jailed

At least 18 people connected to President Trump have been locked up, indicted, or arrested since the real-estate mogul announced his candidacy in 2015.

Sure- the disproportionate number still happening in Trump areas-where they still aren’t vaccinating or taking basic precautions like masks- even all the more ironic given that they mostly live in rural, sparsely populated areas which should have been spared this level of pain. This thing would have been over by now if they hadn’t bought in to all of Trump’s dangerous, self-serving lies.

Counties with worst virus surges overwhelmingly voted Trump

U.S. voters went to the polls starkly divided on how they see President Donald Trump’s response to the coronavirus pandemic.

You seem to be somewhat cognisant of the world around you and yet you do not seem to understand that the efforts to divide the population for the benefit of the elites.

The imagined "us vs them" scenarios to which you seem to adhere are imagined.

It's not us vs them. It's ALL of us vs the virus and those who hope to profit by the panic they inflict. In passing, vaccinated are not more immune to infection- only to the more severe symptoms.

Pro tip: The virus doesn't care who you voted for.

True. But can we agree that masks and vaccines help control a pandemic, and only one side has gaslighted and sabotaged those efforts?

Holy smoke. Even though I predicted it who would've thought someone would actually step up and make a statistical argument for drunk driving?

I just pulled the 3% number out of the air. The actual number is unknown without knowing how many drunk drivers there are at any given time but the number of alcohol related automobile deaths is known and closer to 10-15 thousand per year. That means to match your Covid numbers the total of people driving drunk all year would only have to be one million drunks driving per year. But since we also know that there are about 1.5 million dui's issued per year it's safe to assume the actual number of people who drive under the influence is much, much greater making your Covid numbers dwarf those of drunk driving fatalities.

Even if a statistical argument made sense, you lost that argument too.

Never mind that the reason for making drunk driving illegal isn't because the fatality numbers are so high, it's because they are so avoidable. A strategy those who are so concerned about their freedumb can't/won't comprehend.

So, to recap, you made up numbers so they are meaningless and you think this makes a win for you?

You must be a Democrat.

 

[j brown's body]

My biggest concern with Biden, who obviously isn't up to the job, is what if there's a real crisis? Like if China makes a move, or some nutjob terrorist gets a nuke.
We'll need a real leader at that point.
Biden's not that guy.

Like a pandemic? lol.

 

[less right]

The real numbers just made your argument look even more stupid. You must be the purveyor of stupid arguments.

True. But can we agree that masks and vaccines help control a pandemic, and only one side has gaslighted and sabotaged those efforts?

There are studies that show that mask mandates have no impact on the spread of the virus.

The recorded data showing the numerical beginnings of cases, the following rise, the cresting of the cases at the peak and the eventual fall offs occur with no impact demonstrated by the use of or absence of the mitigation measures.

I can't see evidence to support any contention that masks or mask mandates impeded the spread of the virus in any example.

Do you know of any?

On the other hand, the football season sell out crowds screaming loudly spitting their bodily fluids from unmasked faces on one another STARTED as the Delta Wave was CRESTING AND FALLING OFF.

Accepting that masks are any sort of magic bullet seems nonsensical.

Great Example!

Biden is continuously striving to violate Federal Law with his efforts and failing to control the Virus. A combination demonstrating his treasonous intentions and his utter incompetence.

Cases and deaths both up comparing the raw numbers of 2021 to 2020. More than half of the states suing him for his illegal tactics.

The real numbers on what?

I posted the real numbers and they made your case shrivel up and blow away.

You made my case shrivel up but your still asking "real numbers on what"? It's clear you don't even know what the case is.

My case wasn't about the numbers. It was a prediction that some low info poster would come in and use numbers to defend drunk driving. You obliged by providing Covid numbers.

And as it turns out the numbers for drunk driving fatalities is lower than numbers of Covid fatalities so the stupid argument not only fails on the stupidity, but on the numbers as well.

Biden is a bad president because he does not understand accounting.

He keeps saying "it will cost you nothing" while right behind him the House is trying to pass the dead $3.5 TRILLION bill.

If it costs nothing, why is there a price tag on that bill?

Biden is lying again.

 

[diz]

Even if you agree with Biden’s policies, he’s obviously a terrible leader and terrible example for his party.

He routinely lies and gets easily caught. He gropes, sniffs and fondles women and children. His family is overtly trading on the the influence they have with him. He makes excuses and blames others for failures, or simply tries to deny they are occurring. He can’t go long without making overtly racist remarks. He’s so dangerous with a microphone in front of him that they have to shuffle him away from reporters and hide him in his basement. He has almost no respect for the Constitutional limitations of his office. He has at some point in his career said something that all make him look like a hypocrite on every issue he speaks on today. He’s never led anything, never achieved anything outside of getting himself elected, never done anything to suggest he has much merit. Even Democrats got this enough to refuse to vote for him in the past. They sold their souls and any claim to any principles relating to the above by defending all of the above to get him elected.

Now they’re stuck with him.

And, all but the most partisan can see his policies are also exactly wrong for this moment in time. Wildly out of touch with the current state of the country.

You don’t win elections by having modest approval from the most partisan people already on your side.

Biden again claims Americans do not understand how supply chains work

President Biden insisted once more on Wednesday that Americans, no matter how smart they may be, do not truly understand how supply chains work.

www.foxnews.com

he certainly has his share of yelling at voters and insulting the American's people's intelligence
*maybe he should whisper it* - that seems to work *for no one*

 

[JustAFella]

Joe is not acting like an American President at all. Instead he resembles more of the type person (bully) screwing up banana republics

Weird, I saw no supporting evidence in your post. Did you delete it on accident?

Biden is a typical POTUS, which was always the idea. He is genetically designed to be what we considered a POTUS to be, for better or worse.

No arguments from here that he is old as shit and doesn't command a room or anything, but he must do better when I am not looking because he got Afghanistan done and infrastructure done. Both were huge accomplishments.

The part you seem oblivious to is that sort of argument is past it’s expiration date and changes none of what I said.

You voted this Biden disaster into office. He’s a weight dragging your party down now.

Bad leader, bad policies poorly defended and executed. Prepare to suffer the consequences.

If you don’t get that the Afghanistan withdrawal was an unconditional disaster I question your grip on reality.

If you think “infrastructure” is going to have much of an impact on anyone I question your grip on reality.

You sound more like you’re cheering for your team than engaging in thoughtful consideration of why Biden is considered such a bad president by so many.

Nah, he's fine. He's also not an obnoxious ass when he's not getting legislation done.

Also, a lot of what you said is bullshit.

Also, I am not a Democrat.

Also, I voted for Bernie in the primary. I did vote for Biden, but only because there was an idiot maniac in the White House who would not accept the results unless he was crushed. Dumb me, I guess, since he didn't accept them anyway.

People are stupid and always reverse course in the mid-terms. I have no doubt it will happen again. I'll take an infrastructure bill, ending the war in Afghanistan, a global commitment to prevent multinationals from hiding wealth, global commitments to reduce emissions, and maybe a social bill and voting rights if we are lucky. For a sunsetting fossil, somehow he is getting important shit done.

Feel free to stand in the corner and pretend to be angrier than you are, though. Must feel good or something.

No one cares what you think. Everyone cares we are out of Afghanistan. Sorry for your tears, but in 50 years the history books will consider it a big deal and a win for the guy who kicked the shit out of Trump. I can't wait till your grandkids get to read about it.

If you think “infrastructure” is going to have much of an impact on anyone I question your grip on reality.

Ok. I mostly want it to have an effect on bridges and roads.

You sound more like you’re cheering for your team than engaging in thoughtful consideration of why Biden is considered such a bad president by so many.

Can you guess how many ****s I give what idiots like...well, you can guess who I might be talking about...think? Zero. Absolutely zero.

Last year, we had energy independence. Biden shut down Keystone and made us dependent again on foreign oil

He took a critical step to protect the climate and end a corrupt Koch profit scam.

The price of energy drives much of our economy and right now, that price is going through the roof. This affects everyone.

Yes, it's high. It happens. One reason is that Europe is switching over to more gas use.

The pullout from Afghanistan was a debacle. I won't quibble with the fact that we got out but removing the military first, not keeping Bagram, not ensuring all citizens and allies got out, right after emphatically stating he would not do any of that was a debacle. It made us poor partners and untrustworthy.

And yet, better than trump, Obama, or Bush. Or Vietnam, massively.

In the last year of the previous administration we heard virtually nothing about caravans. Now that many of those policies have changed, we have even larger caravans, tens of thousands coming every day, no COVID testing, no security screening, and now there are plans to give hundreds of thousands of dollars to those that broke our laws while the law abiding wait in line and jump through bureaucratic hoops.

Not a word about OUR committing the human rights disaster of forced child separation. Why should you be listened to?

Inflation is going out of control. Printing money, proposing higher business taxes, pushing things such as living wages and higher minimum wage, student loan forgiveness, will only exacerbate. Rolling back tax cuts will make it worse. Rather than proposing measures that would alleviate the impact, he is doing and proposing things that will aggravate.

Inflation is up as the government provides funds to keep the economy from crashing during the pandemic. It's a small price to pay, and will be improved.

I guess you would prefer someone who destroys the climate for Koch profits far more, stayed in Afghanistan, what, machines gun families at the border? Who knows what you are advocating; and lets the economy crash. to keep inflation lower.

It only fails in the minds of those that cannot grasp the meaning of the numbers.

You have self identified.

You failed to explain how I defended drunk driving as you claimed that I had and as I requested you do.

(This is what you posted to me yesterday in the "There is too much talk about how many have been vaccinated thus providing a false impression that COVID is under control" thread and my response to your request in that thread...

vvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

Please post the words I used the defended drunk driving.

First let me acknowledge my mistake -- the drunk driving post was in another thread and I lost my place.

But to answer your question... (These are posts from the "Why is Biden a bad president?" thread)

When I said:

I think the argument would be that it's okay to drive drunk because less than 3% of drunk drivers result in fatalities.

You responded:

Or, in the case of Covid, 0.12% of the population result in fatalities "with Covid".

Implying that Covid deaths were less than drunk driving as if that made a difference.

But as it turns out Covid is much more deadly than drunk driving so why bring it up at all?
​

^^^^^^^^^^^^


So now that we're both back in the same thread why don't you explain to me why you tried to make the case that Covid was less deadly than drunk driving?
