Putin has not pissed in Biden's face.
Diplomacy and "pissing"are not synonymous. Putin knew that he was dealing with an inexperienced imbecile in trump, and he took full advantage of it.
Putin pissed in Fuck Joe's mouth and made him drink it.
 
Excuse me, but what exactly were the regulations slashed that benefited me? I'll wait.

Excuse me, but what exactly were the regulations slashed that benefited me? I'll wait.

Just take the reg number and google it. It's FASCINATING how much useless govt paperwork and compliance complicates people's lives. I picked an example at random that deals with streamlining applications to HUD for low income folks.


If you ARE a business or on govt programs or a consumer -- it costs $TRILLs in a decade to comply with the paperwork. I kept getting 4 page "conflict metals" to fill out for the govt. They didn't really even APPLY to my electronic product design group, but was required to fill them out annually.

That - AND I got my favored incandescent bulbs back. LOL...
 
Could you tell me how he’s different, other than being a D?

Biden is actually cleaning up the messes Trump left behind. The mess in Afghanistan. The mess at the Southern Border. The mess with the supply chain.

Biden isn't spending all of his Justice Department's time, trying to investigate the FBI and CIA. He's reinstituted the patterns and practices orders for police departments to cut violence against civilians. The Justice Department is also working to counter the anti-democratic measures being instituted by the states to restrict access to voting.

Biden has the best first year economic numbers in a century. And he's restored your NATO Alliances, although damage from the Trump regime remains. The Senate has refused to confirm your ambassadors so diplomacy has been difficult.

Had there been an Ambassador to France in place, perhaps the misunderstanding over the Australian submarine contract might have been avoided. Interim or those doing the work while awaiting the new appointment seldom get the access to top government officials that subordinates have.


Then there's the lying. The attempts to demonize the media for not kissing his ass. Trump's entire term was an exercise in gaslighting the American public into believing Trump was doing a great job, despite all reasonable evidence to the contrary. Trump started on his first full day in the White House, lying about the size of the crowd.

Trump spent his entire time in office, attacking Democrats. He woke up every day looking to dominate the news cycle. Biden gets up every day looking to get things done for the American people.

Last but not least, conservatives are the least effective or efficient managers of the economy. They are so focused on dogma, that they get nothing done.
 

So, Never-Trumps, are you happy now with Biden?​

11 Sep 2021 ~~ By David Zuckerman
Five years ago, the Trump base could not understand the NeverTrump Republicans who were willing to have the horrible Hillary Clinton in the White House, not the Trump they loathed. Thank G-d, that did not come to pass.
But today — there is a curious silence in the NeverTrump camp now that they have succeeded in getting the loathed Trump out of the White House...for Biden. Does anyone hear a Bret Stephens, a William Kristol — even Liz Cheney, whooping and hollering in gleeful jubilation that with President Biden in the White House, the Oval Office is Trump-rein?
I don't hear these faux Republican malcontents praising Biden to the heavens — Biden, who probably can't distinguish COVID-19 from the common cold, Biden, who is a serial liar and likely a sociopath, Biden, whose idea of policy is reverse whatever Trump did (but not necessarily on Afghanistan). Consider, too, for all the slurs, lies, and contumely hurled at Mr. Trump, no one ever suggested that someone was sending him instructions — except of course the base lie that Putin was his puppet master. The anti-Trump calumnies included the phony assertion that President Trump was mentally challenged, not fit to be president. But that was sheer propaganda, indulged in by the NeverTrump Republicans, happily joining the rabid, radical left, with both groups terminally beset by Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Does one hear of Biden Derangement Syndrome? Fact is, if we were to hear of this malady, the sole person afflicted would be Biden himself.
~Snip~
And let's not overlook poll numbers. The Trump-loathing Republicans shouted with schadenfreude at poll numbers showing Mr. Trump's to be in the mid- to low- 40s. But with the media incessantly defaming him personally, and covering up his successes in domestic and foreign policy, it is a wonder that his poll numbers were over 40% positive. Yet with the media covering up Biden's failures, with the media ignoring his mental lapses, with the media spiking evidence of Biden family corruption — Biden's actual poll numbers are not much better than the artificially depressed numbers of Donald Trump.
It is as if a power greater than all of us decided: "Okay, NeverTrump malcontents, you bore false witness against Donald Trump? Now see how fares the nominee you worked so mightily to elect over Trump — so that the people will realize that you do not work for the common good of the society, as Madison called for in Federalist No. 57, just your narrow, self-serving interests.
Heavens, even the Trump-loathing Peggy Noonan has been forced to admit: Biden "no longer comes across as empathetic, much less serious." As my late mom, Annie Zukerman, would say: NeverTrump crowd, "you made your bed. Now lie in it....


Comment:
After seven months of failure by Joey Xi and his appointees, it appears that those who fought to impose a coup d' etat against Trump now have buyers remorse.
Indeed. The Never-Trump and pro-Biden on my Facebook feeds are strangely silent since their man was awarded the presidency.
I guess they are too busy working extra shifts so they can by groceries and gas. Too busy trying to “bit-wash” their anti-Trump diatribes and pro-Biden essays. I suspect there are more than a few of them who are happy with the America created by Joe Biden, an America that abandons allies, citizens, and billions of dollars worth of military hardware, and provides the enemy with lists of those who provided assistance to America in their war against terrorism.. Where are all the pro-abortion feminists who demonized Trump and supported Biden? Why are they not picketing and marching with vulgar "Pink Pussy" hats in protest of the fate Biden has dealt all women of Afghanistan? Sex slavery, forced “marriages”, denial of education and employment, and torturing to death those who refuse or are outspoken critics must be an acceptable alternative to the evil tweeter, Trump. Where is the media writing of the degradation of American principles? I suspect they are resting their keyboards getting ready to blast away at Trump again just as soon as he announces he will run for President again in 2024. God Help America !!
I am a Never Trumper and I am ecstatic Trump is out of office. That does not correlate to being happy about Biden. There is a horde of tards on this forum who think that just because I hate Trump I love Biden. It's an idiotic false dichotomy, but what can you expect from Trump lickspittles?

I voted for the Libertarian candidate because I consider both Trump and Biden to be the greater evils.

What you fools don't get is that if my neighbor has a guest who shits all over his furniture, I would have a very low opinion of that guest. But if I had a guest who was shitting all over MY furniture, I would have a great deal more enmity toward my guest than my neighbor's guest.

Trump delivered the kill stroke to the GOP. The GOP no longer exists. It has been replaced by a cult of personality. So the very least of fates I wanted for the fucker who brought it down was to be forced out of office and to hear him whining and whining and whining to the end of his days.


What I care about more than anything else in politics is getting government spending under control. Trump lied right to the sea of credulous retarded faces that he was going to get spending under control and pay off the debt. It drove me crazy the tards fell for that shit. These dumb fuckers spent 8 years whining non-stop about Obama's spending, and yet when Trump commenced to doubling the federal deficit in his first two years, with the full cooperation of a Republican Congress, I could not coax even the slightest whisper of complaint from these same dumb fuckers.

So I don't give a flying shit about the opinions of these raging hypocrites. They threw every last principle they claimed to have right out the window the day Trump was sworn in. Family values, fiscal conservatism, honesty, fidelity to our allies, ad infinitum.

All of it. Right out the window. So fuck every single mouth-breathing Trump supporter. All of them.

Trump submitted the largest spending budget in US history.

And guess what the tard herd is doing now? Complaining about Biden's spending!!!

I used to wonder why the tards' heads didn't explode from all that hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance, until one day I realized they actually have no cognition. They are nothing more than empty-headed parroting robots without a single original thought in their heads, and a total inability to think critically.

You’re exactly like a devoted Trumper. Delusional.
