    Some are saying Biden used the term in a completely non-racist manner, such as this:

    possibly but not even close to the last guy....remember the wall and Bannon? The campaign funds, the portraits, etc....Joe showed his tax returns at least...our govt is a pay for play govt that has always run covert black op operations and done shady business...glad we're getting out of the last one.

    It's the same topic but I won't engage it if it isn't in your interest..the last administration had a lot to do with our current Taliban issue...they are a connected topic....I'm glad Joe ripped the band aid off that rock pile...we currently have a commission looking into govt wrongdoing on Jan 6th so that chapter is not closed..easy to understand why it's a topic today

    I'm not a democrat and please don't refer to me as "you people"....I'm not your adversary my friend...we agree about corrupt politics but you don't have to hear my opinions...I think yours are sensationalized a bit but you are welcome to them...conversations require hearing these things..doesn't mean we agree or you have to tolerate a conversation...it's easy to not engage
    I do have political bias against the GOP though after Jan 6th....my ideas of a perfect govt don't exist..as far as media influencing politics,,you don't see me cutting and pasting political videos here much if ever....

    Right wing news sites faked a video to make it look like Biden fell asleep while meeting with Israeli prime minister. If you can't find a scandal, make one up.

    Debate 101 at the University of ABM……….”I know you are but what am I?” Effectively shuts down discussion as the other party walks away in disgust………Enroll now!

    This political banter back and forth gets real old. Regardless of religion or not, political affiliations, race, location of residency, we are all Americans. This hatred against people with opposing views is just like the fucking ISIS and Taliban that hate those against their beliefs. Is this how you are raising your kids grandkids to navigate society and contribute to community efforts, by teaching them hate for the other side? WOW

    If I were to drive down a highway a saw someone in distress I will stop to offer help regardless, but i'm not so sure, many that are caught up in this back and forth would if they saw it was a person from the other side. Its real ugly and everyone needs to watch how their actions effect children that are looking for ways to follow.

    I don't mind the political back and forth here. In my real life all my crazies are either tolerated or excommunicated, so it's nice to have an outlet that doesn't ruin Thanksgiving dinner.

    He's not using the presidency to enrich himself.
    He can open his mouth without lying.
    He is capable of empathy.
    He doesn't tell people to inject bleach.

    If you think Trump is better than Biden you should put forth that argument as to why rather than lol'ing and making people defend their choice. That is a weak way to argue and/or try to make a point.

    Unemployment rate when Trump entered presidency: 4.1%
    Unemployment rate when Trump left presidency: 12.95%
    Unemployment rate Now: 5.4%

    ---

    US troops in Afghanistan when Trump left office: 8,600
    US troops in Afghanistan now: 0

    ---

    Dow finished Trump's administration at 30,000
    Dow right now at 35,600

    ---

    In addition, here are things the Biden administration managed to do which the Trump administration did not.

    1. Devise a federal plan for vaccine distribution which has lead to many lives saved
    2. Passed the infrastructure deal - so there is actually something being done on repairing America's crumbling infrastructure
    3. Restored investment in 21st century energy and industrial technology like renewals instead of 19th century energy and industrial technology like coal

    while at the same time managing not to make the leaders of the western world laughing at him, restored stability to the government from the rolling carousel of hiring and firing, removed the pillow industry's chokehold on American policy.

    The list goes on and on, but this administration has done a whole lot more for the country in less than half the time it took the previous administration to try and ruin it.

    You are welcome.
