When you understand that Biden isn't just the President of whatever the fuck America is nowadays, and see that he is a pawn in a globalist chess game, it all makes sense.

The pull out of Afghan wasn't a fuck up, it was perfectly timed and planned. That China is already making deals with the taliban, less than two weeks after America started to pull out, should tell you everything.

A very, very big deal went down a few weeks ago, involving the mid-east, America and China. A deal so big, none of the allies (UK and Europe) were able to be in on the know. A G7 summit lasting less than 15 minutes between america and said Allies is another indicator.

Your previous guy was called a Russian puppet, yet did wonders for your country. This new guy is called Beijing Biden and is now talking about bailing out the chinks with AMERICAN TAX DOLLARS. Never have i heard of tax from one country filtering in to another.

Who runs america? The chinks.

Biden is funny to laugh at. While some people hope he drops the N-bomb i hope he shits himself live.
 
He is honestly the worst President we've ever had in my life time by a huge margine and we aren't even through year one yet.

I just don't remember any other president failing and failing and failing over and over again. He's created so many disasters that I've forgotten about some of them already. I just got reminded of the Keystone Pipeline deal and I was like "Oh shit, that did happen!".

And this whole deal in Afghasnitan is the most stunning and embarassing failure I've ever seen from an administration.

Every president in their lifetime has their failures and their disasters. The first Bush raised taxes when he said he wouldn't, W Bush got us into the endless wars post 9/11, Clinton had the Lewinsky scandal and there were also things like the Vince Foster situation to cast suspicion on what goes on behind the scenes, and I remember Obama's adminstration being embroiled in 3 scandals all at the same time (Using the IRS to attack political enemies, NSA reveal thanks to Snowden, and the Benghzai fiasco), and Trump was just a three ring media circus the entire time he was in office.

But this Biden presidency is just a total exercise in incompetence. It makes me want to believe they are doing this on purpose as part of some evil conspiracy because I just can't believe a group of people can be this collectively stupid.

And to compound all of that, Biden is obviously in mental decline and anyone that doesn't agree is just lying to themselves. Say what you will about Clinton, W, Obama, or Trump (and Lord knows I could say plenty) they were exciting speakers with different traits, personalities, and charisma to make people believe in them. Watching Joe up there trying to speak is like watching a child with a man's body give his first oral report to a classroom.

Economy's shit and the Afghanistan pullout was bungled, but on the other hand, he's continuing the trend of pulling the US out of stupid bullshit in the Middle East that the US has no business in and he's getting Right To Repair taken seriously. All in all, meh/10.
 
Easily the best president of my lifetime. That's a very low bar, but he has done some good things:
1. He pulled out of Afghanistan, easily the most principled and brave thing a president has done in decades. Yes, it was bungled, but it was necessary. Trump couldn't do it despite of all his phony populist rhetoric because his ego couldn't handle it. The American empire is on its way out and we should celebrate.
2. He at least supports the living wage, even if Manchin wants it dead on arrival. Probably the most tangible way for the Democratic Party can support the working class and has actually gotten a large part of the party to rally around it.
3. He doesn't suck off fossil fuel companies. Keystone Pipeline and fracking can go fuck themselves, and it's a relief that we actually have a president that isn't their slave.
4. He's re-entered the Paris Climate Accords and is actually working towards climate change mitigation for the first time ever. Still too little, but anything short of degrowth is too little.

And yes, I know he's basically a vegetable at this point and a puppet for the corrupt DNC establishment. I know his administration is basically neoliberalism embodied. He's still better than Trump, Obama, Bush, and Clinton. This is American politics we're talking about, we can't expect too much.
 
Started out feeling pretty blasé towards Biden and just kinda expected this to be Obama's third term but with an added dash of insufferable identity politics. I have come to completely detest him now that we're seven months into his presidency. The vaccination mandates and his absolute contempt for the unvaccinated is what caused me to break, so watching governors like DeSantis and Abbott tell him to fuck off in the face of his EO gives me life.

I'd rather deal with Biden for the next four years than Kamala though. Nobody likes Kamala Harris and the DNC is well aware of this.
 
He's not actively bad as in trying to make life hell for everyone in stupid ways, so much as that he's going on auto-pilot as evidenced with the Afghan withdrawal. He messed that up enough that plans for the withdrawal that had been worked on for years seem to had been abandoned due to him trying to push it back seemingly just to avoid sticking to Trump's timetable. Which will result in a great big refugee crisis for a variety of countries that wasn't really necessary (major thing the establishment hated was Trump kept refusing to take in unlimited Afghans as part of the plans).

The thing is, he probably didn't mean to fuck things up the way he did, he just blindly believed the military about their nonsensical claims about how things were going in Afghanistan and took the "let things run on auto-pilot" stance of letting the military just keep doing whatever it was it was doing. Which as we all know went to hell since the Taliban didn't take kindly to their agreement being disrespected and essentially kicked the US out.

In Trump's first year, he pissed off a lot of people in the military including Mattis by talking to soldiers who had been on the ground in Afghanistan and suggesting the top brass try listening to them to get an idea of how they could decide what succeeding there even meant. Apparently in his second year the plans for withdrawal started up and continued on through his final year culminating in the deal with the Taliban about withdrawing. Speaking to those outside the top brass to find out what people on the ground are thinking is not something you could ever expect Biden to do. It would require personal initiative and an ability to respect people on the ground.

Anyhow, you can also see this desire to let things go on auto-pilot with the shutting down of the pipeline. While the pipeline would've helped a great deal with jobs and cutting down on pollution, it would also have shaken up the trucking and railway industries, so rather than take a pro-environmental and pro-business stance Biden went with avoiding any changes at all so the environment can suffer.

With most of what Biden does, it's more about how little he really wants to do. He mostly seems interested in letting the leadership of various parts of the government just decide for themselves what they think is best and not pressuring them with any sort of positive guiding philosophy. Since we've seen how insane the military, DoJ, and alphabet agencies can be, it's probably not a great sign of what's to come as Biden is effectively going to let them all do whatever they want.

Biden ripping up Trump's pull out plan and firing everyone that had a brain was the biggest contributor to everything going sideways, literally could have left it in place but no orange anything bad.

Living wage is getting pushed by the major corporations like Amazon hard, because they won't need employees in the next 10 years. They know their only competition can't compete with that, and making wage slave rates at $15-$20 a hour will make sure said competition dies.

Doesn't suck off fossil fuel companies, yet tries to push laws like green new deal which includes a complete ban on domestic extraction and refinement. Giving foreign companies and OPEC a monopoly on oil production again.

Part of the planned part of the Paris Accords is a global carbon tax, collected and coordinated by the IMF. So you will now pay in a worst case scenario City, State, Federal, and GLOBAL taxes on all earnings. The latter of which will again, be run by the IMF which will have 0 oversight.

Go and read deeper into the things Biden supports, and you will find most of them rotten to the core and going against your own best interests.
 
He is just really fucking boring to me. Standard, generic, politician. The only good thing he did was get us out of Afghanistan, but he certainly did not handle it well.

I hate Kamala a lot more than Biden.
 
He's about what I expected, another piece of shit that exists to fuck over the anyone beneath the 1%. There is no such thing as a good politician, only ones that are slightly worse than others, it's completely impossible for a good person to become a politician.
 
I think it's important to understand the scope of the potential of the office of the president, which, with vanishingly rare exception, exists simply to rubber stamp the agenda of whichever party inaugurated them. the ideal of the office, the Great Man who cuts through the bullshit and turns the tide of the political moment through sheer force of will and charisma, is descended from the public perceptions of certain administrations like Lincoln, TR, and FDR, which, though surpassingly rare, has come to define the national image of what a president must be. through this lens, Biden is a perfectly normal president. his campaign was an incoherent blend of sugar to help the medicine go down, as many people correctly perceive that there is no substance to his agenda whatsoever beyond the agenda of the democratic party which is ultimately the agenda of the capitalist class and the MIC. but this is simply the nature of the country as it has been since the end of WWII. long ago our leaders decided that the business of America would be jets and guns and bullets and bombs, built around a web of foreign entanglements and imperialist projects, and the anesthetization of the public through consumer culture, rather than the material benefit of the increasingly alienated and miserable society that keeps this engine running, and any gestures otherwise are wholly unserious pretense adopted in the name of placation.
 
I'm not old enough to remember Carter so would be interesting to hear if we have any old fogies able to compare Eagle Claw with whatever the fuck the Kabul Kerfuffle will be known to history as.

Well, Carter spends his time building homes for the poor.

Biden spends his time seeking power and killing families with drone strikes.
