Is Joe Biden after 10 months: Worst president ever?

[danmand]

OK, if nobody else will, maybe you can explain the philosophical conundrum when the conservatives prevents Biden from enacting any change and then attacks him for being ineffectual.

Don't you see the problem?

Lol!! You guys keep screaming "DEMOCRACY!!!" every couple of minutes and yet you fail to understand something so fundamental and necessary to the health of the democracy as parliamentary opposition. It's the job of the opposition to oppose. Just wait when the GOP takes back the Congress. Your tears of pity for poor Joe will be Niagara Falls.

So, you are unable to explain it.

I will not shed a single tear for Biden. I just find your opinions puzzling. I would have expected you to be congratulating Biden on preventing the introduction of social programs. I expected you to think Biden is one of the best presidents after Trump.

There's nothing to explain. The parliamentary system itself is the explanation.

USA does not have a parliamentary system.

But are you not happy that Biden did not get social programs enacted?

That is all they have for policy.
Of course Trump only got one bill passed as well.

Of course it does. What do you think is the role of that big ass building on top of the hill? I am neither happy nor unhappy. The politics is the art of the possible which starts with counting votes to see if your agenda can pass or not. And when counting, you concentrate on the votes in your own party. The Democrats are short.

Of course it does.

Thanks for confirming you don't know what political system the US has. It explains a lot.

Yup, whatever.

Dude.
You claimed the US was a parliamentary system.
That you don't even care you're so laughably wrong says a lot.

He’s definitely not a great president, But he is certainly not the worst. That honour goes to his predecessor who is by far the worst president in history ,no other president is even close to being as ludicrous as Donald J Trump.

Why Biden Is Winning Big, Even With A Bad Hand:

 

[WyattEarp]

Inflation is global, but sure, blame Biden only.

Do you know how printing and spending the global reserve currency works in the world?

So at some point, the Biden Administration and the Federal Reserve will have to deal with it.

 

[WyattEarp]

I personally blame Joe Biden for the fact that I can't afford to buy a house in downtown Toronto and have to live in a condo. Joe Biden caused all that, starting about 15 years ago.

There is actually a stronger linkage between U.S. spending/printing and global real estate than you realize. The U.S. runs large fiscal deficits and floods the globe with U.S. dollars. The Chinese are direct benefactors from this U.S. spending. The Chinese take their money and show up in places like Toronto and Vancouver among others to buy real estate.

I will get a little more in the economic weeds. The U.S. Federal Reserve has driven down interest rates. If Canada and other economies don't lower their interest rates, their currencies will only get stronger hurting their export industries. Low interest rates inflate the price of assets like real estate.

This ain't just theory this is real practical economics.

What used to be the GOP has abandoned any pretense that they have any interest in governing. They have abandoned any hope of winning votes based upon arguments or principles. they have become the party of seizing power by any means for its own sake. l of thre phony so called audits etc, voter suppression, gerrymandering etc. The only guiding principle is bend the knee to the stable genius. You know the only twice impeached POTUS in history..

It's very simple Republicans want limited government. Many Canadians here have a hard time accepting that Americans do not want Western European systems and even the Canadian system of government.

I'll go further. On several occasions, some of the true knuckleheads here will repeat over and over again a U.S. media liberal talking point without any introspection that it conflicts with Canadian governance and political sensibility. Social media tends to draw out ideological driven people when in reality most American and Canadians have more moderate views.

What does this article have to with inflation? If I criticize you for a non sequitur, some partisans here jump in to defend you like we're on some team wearing uniforms.

The limited government argument is a red herring and has nothing at all to do with this issue. This nis an issue of public safety which most people would agree is part of the function of government. Like police and the army and speed limits etc. I don't care if you want to kill yourself but don't take me and other with you and do not nuke my access to hospitals and health care more difficult and expansive because they are too busy looking after you and treating you for something which is largely avoidable. Not really that complicated.

Taking this at face value - because I'm having a busy day - how is this the fault of a president who has been in office less than 1 year?

As opposed to a long-term systemic issue with US currency policies?
