What's Biden's score so far? 15 I think? Five days into office. Only 3 years and 360 days left

He does have a lot of things to disastrously mess up after the previous management  |
I find myself agreeing with you!

Actually, I wouldn't have thought that was far enough for you. I didn't think you'd stop short of Xi Xinping. Still, you do go for Xiao Bai Den

@Islander:
Leaving Trump aside (c'mon man, you can do it!), since he's gone now, what do you think Biden will achieve in his term, and what leads you to believe whatever it is you come up with? What precedents from Biden, in his nearly 50 years in politics, can you give for your expectations?

I was thinking about this and thought hey, give the guy a break, most of those are surely going to be to do with Covid19 and he's just responding to a perceived inaction from Trump. So I looked a bit further.
Actually there's a fair few Covid19 related ones. But not as many as you'd think.
However, one jumped out....
https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/01/20/executive-order-protecting-the-federal-workforce-and-requiring-mask-wearing/
| Quote: | Sec. 2. Immediate Action Regarding Federal Employees, Contractors, Buildings, and Lands. (a) The heads of executive departments and agencies (agencies) shall immediately take action, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law, to require compliance with CDC guidelines with respect to wearing masks, maintaining physical distance, and other public health measures by: on-duty or on-site Federal employees; on-site Federal contractors; and all persons in Federal buildings or on Federal lands. |
So imagine my shock and awe at Biden at the Lincoln memorial just hours after signing that:
https://media13.s-nbcnews.com/i/MSNBC/Components/Video/202101/nbc_biden_night_speech_210120_1920x1080.jpg
And there's pics of his family completely ignoring the new order, too.
Further, remember all the grief Kayleigh McEnany got for not wearing a mask in press conferences?
Well....
https://bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com/resizer/Nd6tI_Dg4_BBJwkkG07_BpDc2cI=/1440x0/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/bostonglobe/ERBL3CX6HVBLKXHSNIF5OI3D6Q.jpg
I bet CNN are going after them both for their blatant rule breaking, right? |

Trump has opened an "Office of the Former President of the US".
You've got to admit, he is the supreme troll

Mar a Lago has a SCIF too, who's the shadow government now?
More people watched Trump leaving than fake president Bidang's inauguration , Youtube are still keeping the dislikes below 1000 for his videos, and comments are still disabled.
Still no stimulus cheque for Mentalboy and I heard his gas has gone up by 70c a gallon already.
Any idea why the lights have been off at the White House for 5 days?
Let's see, no military jet, no salute, no General in attendance at the inauguration, still no intelligence briefings, told not to visit the Pentagon and the cult witch is denied access to the naval base housing the VP residence. |

That's interesting. How do you think the US should meet its energy requirements?
Also, why don't you think Biden will do anything about gun control?

If we have to "wait and see", how can you say he will achieve anything worthwhile here? I think while we wait, we ought to knock that one off your list. The US economy was in great shape and improving until covid hit. That's no one's fault...except maybe China's.

Went from saying he had a covid plan to saying nothing can alter its course, meanwhile the WHO and democrats rewrite the rules to make things look better already.
Backtracked on the $2000 austerity payments by subtracting the original $600, and still hasn't paid a cent.
Signed back up to the crippling Paris accord which China gets to ignore.
Cancelled the Keystone pipeline and thousands of jobs so his buddy Bloomberg can continue making $1.5 billion a year moving the oil by rail.
Wizard economist has fuel prices soaring and agricultural prices tanking, job losses in the tens of thousands within a week.
etc. etc.
Talk about having a blue pill wedged in every orifice.
btw renewables are cost ineffective and don't work, California tried it and has constant brown outs.

It should be moving towards renewables of course. |
The world is moving towards renewables, but you have to be realistic about it. It's no good scrapping current energy sources before you can replace them. and there are still huge problems to surmount effectively, not least energy storage.
| Quote: | I'd like to think he could but the NRA are ridiculously powerful - maybe he could pull some of their teeth. |
There is actually a bill doing the rounds, or at least proposed, that will add some quite stringent new conditions to gun sales and ownership. But in a nation where that is an accepted thing, it's not so much proposing stuff as enforcing it that will be the problem. Remember the massive surge in gun purchases in the run up to the election because of the rise in mostly city violence? That wasn't just NRA members and supporters, but was from people on all sides of the political divide.

Here:

I've avoided linking the Democratic party article. Just because.
Quite a successful career really. |
That's disappointing. I thought you might have already known of what he'd done instead of scratching around the internet for something on being asked. You know I don't read other people's links when it comes to news and politics. Given that you wanted Biden in office before he actually got elected, I had hoped you knew why you did.
