The Biden Presidency

I remember a lot of what he said during his campaign, so why can’t you?

One actually has to listen to what he says before rejecting the info to do that, so I could see how you’d miss it.

God, the whining about his election loss and the 2016 media blaming ruse. Does it ever stop?

It was genius enough to beat an incumbent, and that doesn’t happen often. So was Trump THAT horrible, or did Biden run a successful campaign? Either way, the sour grapes and continued whining about media conspiracies are just such a bad look. Why degrade yourself like that?

They could get jobs training as Dem Stasi:

Everything is relative, it’s important to compare people in public office, so the ones of turdish quality are avoided in the future. Doncha think?

Let the record show, Trump did jack squat when Navalny was poisoned:

Biden administration tells Russia to free Navalny and protesters in stark departure from Trump era | The Independent

The Biden administration has reaffirmed its calls for Russia to immediately release political opposition leader Alexei Navalny and his supporters who have been detained for protesting his incarceration.

The new president’s forceful denunciation of Russia’s newest manifestation of political repression marks a sharp departure from his predecessor, who would not say last September that Mr Navalny had been poisoned by Russian government agents, as had been widely reported and speculated.

“We call on Russian authorities to release all those detained for exercising their universal rights and for the immediate and unconditional release of Alexei Navalny,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters on Monday, echoing a statement from the State Department from over the weekend.

Last September, Mr Trump jumped on reporters for asking him about Mr Navalny’s poisoning and whether the Russian government had been behind the attack. The former president told the press they should be more focused on the wrongdoings of China than Russia.

If they can go to prisons of their choice and compete in women’s sports then why not?

Ok, well following that line of reasoning, can we get a Nixon reference every once in a while? Just to mix it up. :pray:

Democracy wins again!

If you want to live a half-century in the past, be my guest!

Is that too long ago? What do you recommend? In other words, can you give us a date on which talking about Trump in threads about Biden will be too far in the past for you?

Not really, we’ll play it by ear, let nature take it’s course. Since many of Trump’s policies are going to be contradicted by Biden’s it will be interesting to take comparison notes.

Translation: you’ll be talking about Trump for the next 4 years.

It’s rather weird to me you have an issue contrasting the new president with the one he just succeeded, but different strokes for folks like you.

Here’s one with no Trump!

Heard a funny observation about Biden, he’s like the old man sitting in the corner people make fun of as weak, but when the cabin is cold and the weaklings are toiling away at frog memes, he’s the one who gets up to chop the wood.

It’s weird that I find it weird that in a thread about “The Biden Presidency” you post more about Trump than Biden? :thinking:

That’s err…insightful.

I do? Are you sure about that?

Try to worry about yourself anyway, I’m flattered though.

When referring to a new president (in office less than a week) making changes to his predecessor’s policies, it is forbidden to mention his predecessor’s name.
“President Biden today reversed He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Names’s policies on…”

Thanks for your concern. I’m flattered. But try to worry about yourself anyway.

A bit long winded. Thou Who Accomplished Trifle?

A good symbolic gesture as to how to move forward. Better than focusing on stuff like a dying coal industry, which :orange_circle: failed at.

President Joe Biden plans to replace the government’s fleet of cars and trucks with electric vehicles assembled in the U.S., he said Monday when signing a new “Buy American” executive order.

The government is a major purchaser of vehicles. However, replacing such a fleet with American-produced EVs will be costly and take time. There are currently only a handful of all-electric vehicles being assembled in the U.S. Tesla, General Motors and Nissan Motor produce EVs domestically, while Ford Motor and others have announced plans to do so.

“The current offerings are pretty slim, but the industry’s about to unleash an avalanche of new product, and a lot of it built in North America,” Kristin Dziczek, vice president of industry, labor and economics at the Center for Automotive Research, told CNBC. “Just about every U.S. plant is going to have a hybrid or electric product.”

Electric vehicles make sense - the performance and driver/passenger safety are really great. Just gotta keep them charged often so they don’t end up like this guy:

A good suggestion I saw would be to make all USPS vehicles electric, which would in turn also give a good reason for electric charging infrastructure.
