I’ll agree to a small point that Biden did do some good but then he also made some bad mistakes.
I was working as a deckhand when he took office and a month after was laid off indefinitely because companies had to stop transporting goods because of costs set by the Biden/Harris administration
For example scrap metal going to steel mills was stopped. Were we had a total of 15 barges 6 or more was scrap metal and then it went down to maybe 3 out of 15. I’m not just saying it’s all Biden but some of his policies didn’t help.
Just like what Trump is doing isn’t helping anyone
Thanks for explaining. I am not in your industry and not familiar with that policy and don't have a specific opinion on it.
Sometimes policies are done with good intentions but they have unforeseen outcomes.
Very true some times good intentions do have bad consequences. However when it comes to the inland maritime industry some politicians thinks it’s a waste and do try to destroy it. For example Obama tried for years to shut down the Port of Chicago when he was first elected as a senator.
The pandemic was still raging when Biden took office, and the supply chain had ground to a halt under Trump. That's why you got laid off. The Biden administration worked tirelessly to get the supply chain moving again.
I don’t think that they are really making decisions out of vendetta, just attempting to install themselves as much more of a fixture while Democrats continue to shed. Remember also how weak American democracy is, too. So long as they have some form of representation it doesn’t matter the umbrella.
Felon47’s intention from the get go was to destroy the economy and our place in the global hierarchy! We just haven’t learned all of the reasons why he did this yet!
Joe Biden maybe wasn’t a Perfect President but he was a good man not a monster as the MAGAs product president is today! Who could have thought it could get this bad? He has betrayed even them!
Yeah, but that messaging is the same BS we can accurately attribute to as why Trump won. Main street doesn't give two shits about wall street especially when hardly any of our adult children can afford a family of their own. That should have been acknowledged. It really should have been.
Yep we’ve watched our entire government infrastructure get dismantled by a foreign national and his troop of douche bags enabled in every way by Jabba the Twatwaffle who signs shit he’s never read and golfs
Now Trump has ALREADY wrecked it, turned our ALLIES AGAINST US, installed the MOST INEPT, CORRUPT people he could find in his cabinet, let Musk STEAL our PRIVATE INFO & has ENDANGERED ALL OUR LIVES ON MULTIPLE LEVELS! Imagine HOW MANY will DIE or have their LIVES DESTROYED if HE REMAINS In office!🤬
Some scars will never heal again. Bye bye american past. You have to find a way out with these people in power now. And the rest of the world will go its own way.
Yes, and trump and his lackies are destroying the America we love because he hates us and he's a simpering, whining, 3 year old bully who always gets his way. He hates us because he lost in 2020 and he's been plotting his revenge since then. It's what he has done historically.
I had quibbles with Biden but he did do this magnificently. Then our neighbors, coworkers, & family members handed the WH to a Russian asset & a malicious billionaire co-president & they've rapidly destroyed the machinery of responsible governing. Thanks, all you virulently stupid assholes.
—because the only media they ever consume relentlessly argued about the price of eggs and how great things were under Trump. Disinformation works if you never look for other views.
This framing of current events cannot be comfortable to live with. I would say we’ve already handed over every local governance to corruption anyway and this merely completes the cycle. We’ve never been alive while not under siege.
I say that all the time. He could’ve just left the policies in place, taken credit for it and played golf. If you think about it, it would have been a better way to own the libs. But I don’t think these guys are clever enough to have seen that.
I don’t wanna 😭 this is when someone says “well, it can’t get much worse” and the repub administration replies *smarmy villain laugh* “oh just wait and see”
And now it's covered in the doo-doo that oozes from the corrupt and incompetent Trump administration, which is rapidly returning the economy to the condition in which Biden first found it.
Stellantis Just laid-off 5,400 workers and paused production in Mexico and Canada for 1 month. They have also called-in McKinsey to look at offloading Alfa Romeo and Maserati to private equity. Both brands are already subject to 25% tariffs. Stellantis have 8% of the US market, 6th biggest in US.
Probably a good idea. I'm not sure even the folks who are serious about purchasing those vehicles would want to add 25%(or higher) to an already $200K vehicle. The market segment is too small to mess with. IMO
You lost by telling working Americans that the economy was good because of the stock market and didn't learn a damn thing. Sounds like you need to lose your 401k's before you'll start to pay attention.
Why isn't the economy important to Theil and the people behind P25? Why are they so determined to destroy it all? I truly don't understand. And why are they happy to have a madman as the face of their takeover?
But it still doesn’t answer the question, why? These people have all the money in the world. Why not build a new community on their own vast acreage. Invitation only, fine. But do it over there.👉
Leave us the fk alone. We like our sloppy democracy. It’s not for them to decide. Assholes.
We know. We understand who is fucking with the economy and it’s not Biden. Democrats pull us out of recessions while republicans bask in manipulations and recessions.
Trump says the quiet part out loud- sends aids out to claim that “this is all part of the plan..then he goes out moments later and reveals them to be liars..”well people got “yippee”so I changed my mind. He doesn’t say itspart of the plan.. he’s reverse course weather forecaster man.. with a marker
And we’re now dealing with a man that doesn’t listen to anyone. There’s the official White House and the White House that operates improvisationaly in T’s hands. The “Yippee” were from his new found friends on wall street - Diamond
I keep thinking about how he must feel now - after all that hard work (and he did work hard) just to watch this vindictive madman take a wrecking ball to just about everything.
Everyone is a loser with Netanyahu. Trump & Bibi were involved in criminal conspiracies since 2016. Biden should never have trusted him, and many warned. There's not much more people can do. We did know Trump would be far more aggressive, and he is. Many voters had the wrong idea.
It was like a hot dog vs. a shit sandwich. The people who didn't vote for Harris are now culpable for all those poor innocent people sitting in a concentration camp in El Salvador.
Sick the damn excuses. No one will take responsibility.
To many Americans, this is gaslighting. It uses “rich people metrics” while most of us can no longer afford housing, education or healthcare.
Then, if we pointed this out during the Harris campaign, our allies screamed in our face that we must be racists.
The problem is many people were still hurting from high prices, and even though the inflation was coming under control, high prices weren't ever going back to pre-pandemic levels. Too many bought into Trump's BS claims that he could fix things.
fuck that guy. his narcissism, as bad as Ginsberg's, caused as much damage to your country. he needed to announce retirement after the 22 midterms, latest
That he had to always had to qualify his work as being "for all Americans" because the right wing media ecosystem constantly hammered him with lies is so...infuriating
OMG- you just made me 😢 missing the adults and competent cabinet running our damn WH gov! And the best economy while Russia Asset dictator sociopath burned it to hell in 3 months! This happens every.damn.time a republican gets elected as president -steals from taxpayers/more debt and burns down US
Yet, Trump gets on TV and says Biden left us a mess and no one calls him a liar and pushes back. He is controlling the media and the questions. It’s all so enraging.
Genocide Joe didn’t even know he was president when he said this. Also 3 months ago Americans were still suffering so his strong economy actually meant nothing to regular citizens. His strong economy is for the same people that Trumps strong economy is for. The 1%! Oh and Israel
Well, that would be a lie also, but he at least wasn't carting off innocent people to be tortured for profit, and stealing money from the government to linre his own pockets.
The economy wasn’t tweaked. It wasn’t massaged. It wasn’t adjusted.
It was held hostage—like your pint at last orders, snatched by the loudest bloke in the pub who swears it’s “for the good of the group” while fumbling through your wallet.
There are 4 former commanders in chief that should be pressed back in service, as well as scores of Military leaders that were sidelined or dismissed. All those people took an oath to the Constitution, and they Must defend it. It’s time to be original
Too bad Trump killed the CHIPS Act and all that momentum. Those are the kinds of jobs Americans need and want not the slave wages they want to import back to the States.
Obama called on unis to graduate engineers who were capable of designing and overseeing manufacturing plants. It took several years. 2022 University of Florida handed out 1261 bachelor's degrees in engineering. A decrease of 10% over the previous year when 1,395 degrees were handed out.
Increasing the number is easy. You just give more academic support to students who you wold normally allow to wash out. They are mostly minorities. Boom.
Trump won because Democrats defend free speech and Republicans know how to manipulate fools.
Our government was built for ethical people to police themselves. Republicans crumbled to greed.
they explained it over & over. But, it's hard to get the message out when Trump drives the news cycle nearly every day & Democrats are mostly ignored by the media.
They need to find a way to not be ignored. It’s the only way they will ever win again. These customers are too brain washed to ever vote based on what is better for America
Without journalists feeding smaller stories to the ecosystem the news cycle becomes stale and a decade of Trump has made them lazy. I don’t bother with them anymore.
Last year, the only time Democrats had the news cycle was in the week to 10 days before Biden dropped out (will he/won't he) and then the next 10-12 days after Harris entered the race. After that, it was all Trump, all the time, except for the debate. Yes, trump got some negative coverage... but,
as PT Barnum once said "There's no such thing as bad publicity" - you can also add Oscar Wilde's quote to that as well "The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about!"
I am not even american and I know this. Medias didn't ignored it. American people did and decided to focus on how old Biden was. And then how much of a baby killer Kamala was.
The real point is that the Democratic party should have been preparing candidates for 2024 the minute Biden won 2020. And Biden had to gracefully help with that. And reduce border crossings and tackle inflation.
tRump won because the GOP cheats.

There was really just a single thing that democrats didn’t handled well enough and it was Palestine and that’s all some people needed to trash them like garbage and unroll the red carpet to outright fascism (as well as ending up killing even more Palestinians)
Look at the 50501 protest, they are mostly not the pro Palestinian protesters. Like I don’t know how we can stop these people they are just constantly making everything worse and they just refuse to acknowledge it, I really don’t understand what they seek.
Like seriously Biden was probably the most working class aligned president you had since FDR, it's not because of the media people couldnt see it, and american are 100x more scared about anything being remotely close to ''socialism'' than outright fascism.
Yes it’s absolutely batshit crazy. Why would people jeopardize this I don’t know. We worked so hard to get there, sooooooooo hard, for decades. Poof, gone.
No. Because Americans just didn't wanted to hear it. I am not even american and it was clear to me. You had the far right who couldnt care less about the economy for the average american as they are painfully showing right now, and you had the useful idiots on a mission to free palestine.
How can you Explain Logical Reasoning to. 99.510,000 Million Americans over 18 and Under 65 years. Have at worst a Ged at best a High-school diploma as the maximum of their education achievement.

No, too many people did not make the effort to find out the truth. How come I knew, on the other side of the world? Everyone has access to information technology.It wasn’t poor messaging by the Dems; it was successful propaganda by the Reps. + the ignorance and/or apathy of 1/3 - 2/3 of Americans.
They did. Mainstream media covered Trump and elevated his message. Even left leaning networks. I knew what was going on. Other people have access to the same sources I do. People chose to stick their head in the sand.
We explained it. They either refused to listen to anything that didn’t come from Mango Jesus’ lips or were too lazy to get up to do anything to stop him.
Anybody remember the White House inviting the billionaires in so trump could tell MAGA, farmers and small businesses how much money those billionaires made off the tariffs (pump and dump)? Democrats should be advertising that in EVERY STATE, non stop. Not as political advertising but as REALITY !
You've been in government. You know people in power. Is the entire FBI, DOG, CIA, DOD just going to sit back and allow this to continue? Where are the big boys that love chest thumping and shouting USA USA at every baseball game they can?! Silent? Clutching pearls?

Trump take 401k -old news.
Trump take savings account - new news.
Now thinking of him is like warm nostalgia.
The fuck!?

Leave us the fk alone. We like our sloppy democracy. It’s not for them to decide. Assholes.
That is why
Now the question is how do you fight an agitated army of complicit zombies with rabies hellbent on chaos.
We just choose not to use them.
I suppose one way to look at it is that, they got their way.
As for the rest of us ... wow.
It would be the best in all the land.
To King Joffrey! Long may he reign!!
Biden is (still) my President!
(Maybe, I'm just clinging to any ray of hope. 🙏)
Before the crooks took over
It cost the Dems the election.
But the vast majority couldn't bear to vote for either party.
One party was less evil than the other. Not much of a recommendation.
Sick the damn excuses. No one will take responsibility.
Then, if we pointed this out during the Harris campaign, our allies screamed in our face that we must be racists.
The reality is Dump just wanted to Sell America
Miss the days of Joe when I saw Norms, Justice and Civil Society holding💙.

Biden's efforts to boost U.S. manufacturing through the CHIPS and Science Act spurred a factory-building boom.
Factory construction hit its highest point in half a century, according to an August 2024 report by Moody’s Anaytics.
They could vote for a black man.
They could vote for an old man.
But they couldn't get off their a$$es to vote for women.
Yes!!
Oath to the constitution, defend against enemies, foreign and domestic, clearly shows Trump is a traitor.
Our government was built for ethical people to police themselves. Republicans crumbled to greed.
I hope they enjoy their apathy.
American exceptionalism my ass.
