My bad was low: “I don’t want a president that nearly sparks world war over tweets.”
Most Americans seem to disagree with me.

I get that Biden was pretty damn passive as a president, but holy moly was it just a relief for a while there to be able to completely forget the president even existed and wasn’t actively destroying the world’s view on the USA.
Like those 4 years were like sitting down for the first time.

Yeah, Biden has a lot of flaws, he’s not perfect, but at least he’s a decent president and a decent person. I kinda wish that he was a lot better

If anybody cares in the future, I think Biden will have a renaissance like Carter, as people realize he was trying to do a lot of good stuff, put a lot of good people in place, etc…
It just wasn’t enough, wasn’t right for that moment, etc… etc… and arguably helped give us Trump again, though I think that was likely coming regardless.

What he was doing in and of itself wasn’t bad, but it was ignoring the shrinking enthusiasm of the democratic base and the growing of the maga rhetoric. It reinforces the pendulum effect of letting the right wing swing back instead of giving the left a whole new momentum.

Agreed. I just don’t think he was even capable of that kind of energy injection. He built a great team though. For whatever little that’s worth.
