I believe there were indeed fewer mass shootings in the most recent 1-year period trump was president vs Biden’s most recent year of being president. truth

It was very embarrassing for me personally when I approved of even a single thing the American president did.

Nazis were more empowered for having him as a president, instead of the status quo of pretending there's no racism.

Maybe you guys should vote for better candidates. Maybe some sanctions will help you make better choices.

Goodness no, now that wouldn't do at all!
the Afghanistan withdrawal. that’s so far it. it’s a loving major achievement. it also matters nothing for most people because it’s foreign policy. but it rules. I still loathe Biden. but that’s the answer. and it is a big one.

Jul 27, 2016

Goodness no, now that wouldn't do at all!
also, the fact that Biden did this. and it was a colossal achievement in ending human misery and bringing troops home. and literally no one remembers it. that’s why no president gives a gently caress about foreign policy when it comes elections.

Goodness no, now that wouldn't do at all!
would that have happened without the withdrawal though

edit; in fact, I’m willing to brook that the withdrawal was timed to avoid this. which makes it of course worse. but still. the country is free of us troops at least. who would definitely not have fixed this issue.

it was a fuckup invasion. a fuckup occupation. no way to make it not a gently caress up withdrawal other than it lasting six years and being undone by congress or next president.

you saw how much the media turned on Biden for doing it. that alone should have been ding ding ding bells for “maybe this is the right thing.”

it’s the one thing the dude has done right and yes he could have done it better but this isn’t Obamacare half measure bullshit he literally got the troops out. it’s his one unequivocally good act.

Maybe he should follow more trump plans then? :)

Personally I think the withdrawal was pretty good, I don't see how it could have gone better apart from a couple of things, poor airport security, that spiteful last drone strike and troops panic firing into a crowd. It could have been incredibly bloody.

the intended outcome of the afghanistan withdrawal was to keep the meatgrinder going for years except with no us bodies on the line, and i'm 100% convinced they would never have withdrawn if they realized how quickly their puppet would fold

so no, you don't actually have to hand it to biden

If Biden hadn't won we wouldn't have gotten Jan 6th, which was the funniest thing to happen during Trump.

It was a glorious capstone on 4 years of comedy.
