Or he’s still preferable to Trump.

I won’t be sorry. No real change for us Brits, the Yanks are always Team America: World Police. I’m just astounded that the crude, old, privileged, rich, orange white guy who’d never had a proper job in or out of politics was able to convince enough people, including the dirt poor of the world’s wealthiest nation, that he would make a difference. Fair play. But then after 4 years of opportunity wasted, some of them still believe it. Sure, politicians were ever thus, but the fanatical allegiance is surprising in the absence of actual achievements. It was all just words.

What proper jobs has Biden had outside of politics?

I could find plenty of articles that disagree with the rest. Meh.

You covered it? Ok, here's the answer: Biden hasn't done any proper job outside of politics.

And lol! Was Trump any different?! After all the fuss his opponents made over him, what do you think? He bloody better have been!

I think that one of the things that Trump was doing was fighting against all these stupid ideas like critical theory (race, gender etc) which Biden is bringing back in. We are going to start finding that this was very important for western countries to do, whereas I don't think Biden understands it at all. Thankfully, our own government does seem to see the importance of it.

How about standing firm against China, whereas Biden is already showing that he cannot be firm and decisive in his language about the CCP - there should be no ambiguity about the US opposition to the Chinese govt's belligerence and attempts to spread its influence worldwide...unless of course you'd be happy to live in a world under Chinese hegemony? Because if Biden doesn't see that this is very much China's goal, it's likely the future. But then Biden stumbles through everything he says so no one can really understand what he is saying, or even if he actually really is saying anything of any substance, and is not just skirting every question put to him through lack of any real policy ideas or goals.

Trump was starting to change the dynamic in the Middle East in a positive way, with Arab countries beginning to normalise relations with Israel, which I also think was a good thing. Who else had achieved anything of the kind?

Trump hadn't entered the US into any wars throughout his office, and had indeed reduced their military footprint in places where little or nothing was being achieved.

One of Biden's first acts was to kill the pipeline deal with Canada, destroying 11,000 jobs at a stroke with no help for those newly unemployed people. Do you also think they should "learn to code?" Whether or not you think the pipeline was a good or a bad thing, don't you think Biden should have put in place alternatives for those workers before just scrapping their jobs? And what signal does such an arbitrary action send to Canada?

This is what I think Biden's presidency will be characterised by; grand schemes and airy ideas, and bowing to whichever way the wind happens to be blowing among the loudest voices in his party, some of these being little more than total fruit-loops, and with little or no consideration of their wider effects. I have not seen anything throughout Biden's political career that suggests he is going to achieve anything of note, certainly nothing of his own devising. But i guess that's ok, because Islander reassures us that he is a very nice man

But hey, go ahead and let me know why you think he will be such a success? And never mind bringing us back to Trump again - he's gone, which is what everyone wanted, so we're all happy

Oh, and btw, it was two failed impeachments that had no leg to stand on. The disgrace of that is all on the Dems for wasting everybody's time.

The Orange One never worked in politics before and wasted 4 years trying to break a system he didn't understand instead of bending it.

The Sleepy One never worked a day in the real world and will spend 4 years (if he lasts that long) working with the system to make sure nothing tangibly beneficial happens for the proles.

At the end of the day it's all rooted in Marxism and as we now know that Marx was completely wrong all this stuff will blow over... in a few generations

With regards to Biden you're ascribing to the tail wagging the dog. He may throw a bone to the useful idiots from time to time (reinstating pointless Critical Race Theory shite) but make no mistake that the lobbyists are back in charge.

It depends on if you think that these theories, once institutionalised, will have any effect. American seats of learning are being gutted by them, and those students will go on to be the politicians, industrialists etc of the future. We already see MSM and businesses infected.

Neither did the gas plants. Funnily enough the wind turbines in the North Sea can cope with that sort of weather. Texans decided to go cheap never expecting a polar vortex cause they refuse to believe in science.

Thats climate change for you, doesn't just mean tornados. it means weather patterns get disrupted giving results that aren't easily predicted.

How many connections does the texan grid have to neighbouring states?

People signed up for spot pricing and start crying when the price goes up? "Oh noes! I believed in rampant, unchecked Capitalist greed and now it's bit me on the ass!!! State handout pls, thx!" Reminds me of the Lloyds Names bleating after the hurricane.

They could have stopped using the electricity and kept warm burning Qur'ans or something. Either that or get nuclear power
