When you claim to be trying to address something, it's not that impressive when you address something very different. Whether Biden's done a good job or not, which is what you claimed that you were trying to refute, is not something that's truly addressed by the things that you had mentioned. Rather, you're trying to resort to addressing a related, but notably different question - one that's been addressed as well, but which you have not actually answered the points that have been made.
Do you have ANY actual argument at all here? Doesn't look like it.
Maybe you're referring to economic problems during that time? If so, wow. Trump gets removed, kicking and screaming, so that other leadership could clean up his mess in a country in the middle of a disaster and it's all the Democrats' fault that the country's suffered and needs to recover?
During the 2 years that Democrats barely held the White house, the House of Representatives, and the Senate, quite a bit got done to help and support the US. Huge amounts of infrastructure repair and investment, for example, with the usual unanimous Republican opposition (and Republicans trying to take credit for things that they voted against). During Trump's Presidency, when Republicans had control of all three, infrastructure became a bad joke! There's more that would have been good to get done in Biden's first two years, certainly, but much of real positive impact was done.
Meanwhile, what has the evil clown show that the Republicans in the current Congress have been putting on actually done? Virtually nothing at all besides endless baseless political stunts and embarrassing the US. Certainly nothing to actually help the economy, inflation, the situation at the border, the US' national interests, or anything else. Well, there is one thing. They seem to have shown that Biden's not corrupt, compromised, or shady, given how very much unsuccessful effort they've put into finding something, ANYTHING to attack him with on that front. Nevermind how huge their double standards are when it comes to refusing to hold Trump and co accountable.
Public perception is dependent on a number of other factors than just how well one's actually done. Moving the goalposts isn't particularly honest. You know that though.
If you had claimed to be addressing the matter of public perception from the start, which would have been fine and which there were plenty of chances for you to do, we wouldn't be dealing with this issue. Yet we are.
To be clear, there are indeed a number of of factors affecting public perception of Biden negatively - many of them quite unreasonable, but that's human nature for you.
Yeah, yeah. Thanks for showing us that DARVO's still a thing. We didn't really need that reminder, though.
On the general topic of Trump versus Biden's economic record, though, I feel like poking at something.
Trump and the Republicans largely benefited from a bunch of hard work to restore the economy during the Obama Presidency and coasted on that. Biden had real challenges to face and has faced them well. People were fairly certainly worse off, especially early on in Biden's Presidency, but that's not because Biden was doing a bad job. Rather, it's because of the immense disparity in circumstance. Given a rather notable group of people seemingly hell-bent on removing the circumstances in play from perspective so they can argue with dishonestly superficial comparisons, there's not really much surprise to be had when it comes to many of your arguments, ChrisBFRPKY.
