Biden Says, Yes, He'll Listen to the Scientists

Haha, Biden has made an idiot of Trump. And this is from a guy who is not known to be witty at all (and whose vice presidential work didn't incite too much respect either).

Democrats are better than Trump at speech. Joe Biden says the right thing about science, about potentially losing, etc. Meanwhile Trump makes wild statements about Dr. Fauci and many other topics.

Trump is better than Democrats at action. Democrats expanded the war in Afghanistan; Trump is bringing peace throughout the middle east. Democrats supported a useless Paris agreement, which would have cost the US a lot of money. Trump got the US out out of this bad agreement. Democrats allowed Chinese economic and military threats to expand. Trump is pushing back against these threats. Trump had many other successful actions, such as improving NAFTA, creating the longest economic expansion ever, lowest unemployment for various minorities, etc.

Cheers

Trump is definitely better at mocking disabled people

He's a man of action, all right. Disabled people.

Balazs, Trump's making it pretty easy for him, though....

DiC: It's somewhat of an exaggeration to say he is bringing peace throughout the middle east. The agreement was between countries who have never been in conflict and who had moving towards normalized relations for several years.
Whatever anyone's views on the Paris accord, pulling out of an agreement which was meant to be a first step towards reducing the impact of future climate change can't really be seen as an achievement. Especially when Trump and other Republicans appear to think the answer is to pretend it's not happening.
I would say that Trump is easily the worst US president in my lifetime. He is easily the most divisive. He was voted in by a minority of the electorate but never made any consessions to those who didn't vote for him. He panders though to conspiracy theorists and right wing extremists. No wonder there is so much disharmony in the country.

DiC, Trump escalated drone strikes leading to sharply increased number of casualties. I'm pretty sure I've explained this to you before, but you keep repeating the lies from Trump.
