You lefties make me want to vote for trump. I've been a Democrat my entire life but I hate being associated with you idiots. Biden is a strong president and has done far more good than any president in the past 50 years but you're too far up hasan pikers ass to see it.

If I see one more "lefty" talking shit about Biden, I'm voting for trump and getting the other fence centers to do so. And I hope he leaves NATO and abandons Palestine to be left a crater so you idiots can finally have a reason to cry (wouldn't matter since you're always crying).

Imagine thinking that your candidate is above criticism for enabling a genocide 🤡

Go ahead and do what you're going to do. If someone correctly criticizing Biden for being too right-wing makes you want to vote for Trump, you never had any principles anyway.

Criticism is fair play and he should be criticized for funding any war as a whole BUT Israel is our ally. That's just how it goes. Although 28,000 deaths and counting is pretty messed up - I just don't see how it's our/Biden's fault.

Lowest unemployment rate in the last 50 years

In the months prior to the pandemic, the unemployment rate during the Trump administration was below 4% for nearly 20 straight months — there was one exception in that stretch, when the rate was 4% in January 2019.

Had Biden set the threshold a tick higher, at or below 4% — instead of simply below 4% — then “the longest stretch in over 50 years” would have occurred under the president he beat in 2020 and may face again in 2024: Donald Trump.

During the Trump administration, there were 24 straight months when the unemployment rate was at or below 4%, starting in March 2018 and ending in February 2020, before the devastating economic effects of the pandemic kicked in.

By that measure, an unemployment rate at or below 4%, the Biden administration is currently riding a streak of 20 straight months — the longest stretch in over three years.

But trump had the worst unemployment rate because of his mishandling of COVID. Two of my examples. Funny how you tried to focus in a single point (and failed) and ignored the others.

You're not good at this 😂😂😂
