Presidential twitter nonsense will diminish, which will be a nice break...but they will still be left wondering why Biden hasn't fixed all of the things.
Well Biden solves the basic problem of safeguarding the democratic process, he may be an utterly ####e President and he may get voted out in 4 years time but he wont spend 4 years trying to overturn term limits, he wont be billions in debt to Russian interests with only political favours to repay them with, so scared of the risk of jail or worse that he listens when some ex special forces operative points out there are easy ways to get rid of problem judges or journalists or like.

Yes Biden might be ####e but he doesnt threaten the basic survival of the country the way Trump does

Any reasonable person should be highly critical of Biden. He's completely unfit for the job...Trump's lack of fitness for the job doesn't change that one way or the other.

Most elections have two candidates that are both capable of doing the job... But one might be a preference over the other. I dunt believe I can recall a presidential election where neither candidate are for for the job.

2016 would fit your statement as well.

In fact, most elections in memory fit that statement

Weird, has it been 12 hours already? Oh well, guess it’s time for another dose of the “Biden is actually not good!!” nugget that someone needs to drop in like it hasn’t been discussed twice daily for the last 3 days.

This thread is a general spin cycle of Orange Man Bad pearl clutching. It's no time to start complaining about redundancy.

If you take Biden and the 5 previous presidents he'll likely be in the top 3 when it's said and done.

Low bar? Probably.

How the eff do you, me or anyone else know that? he may turn out to be the best president we have ever had, he may turn out to be a complete turkey, all we have to go on thus far is his record as VP of an administration that managed to save the US from one of the worst recessions in a century and also bring in a healthcare act, something democrats have been trying to achieve since 1965.

Look at what Biden is walking into. It’s almost a set up for failure.

I’m interested to see who gets what portfolio. Interesting times ahead.

I'm drinking sugar free purple Bubly as a symbol that I have avoided being intellectually trapped by partisan rhetoric like more common folk have.

I'd say 2000 Bush vs Gore. I know you said either but Bush had no business being a govenor or president. He was just a dude who liked cocaine and use to own a baseball team that was thrusted into politics to finish off his daddys dream in Iraq and Afganistan.
