    This is such clickbait. Let’s see, on the left, a candidate who is “old” but has done a ton of good studf in the last 4 years (but not all good stuff, obviously). On the right, a guy a couple years younger but obviously suffering a touch of dementia and Russian blackmail, who has promised to be a dictator on day 1, who has made extreme efforts to hold into classified documents, who has fraud cases, racketeering cases and various other cases pending against him, etc etc.

    Which to choose, the decision is so harrrrrd!

      Biden is a rightist, likely has dementia (trump also likely does but not dealing with him yet) and is too old. Also please name the good things he has done in the 4 years, because he has pretty much just sat their and done bugger all the last 4 years

      Biden is running aganst a Rightist who likely has dementia and is too old

      So my “choice” is a Too old rightest with dementia or a too old rightist with dementia… what a fucking choice

      also dictator is a Fucking loose term if I ever heard one… I can make a case that Biden under the status quo constitutes a dictator, like please use more precice language

          Infristructure was in the works before he was elected, and was famously kneecapped split multiple times with a promise he would only sign one if both haves come, but then left the one with the key climate and public works funding to dry

          Oh wow Inflation really has been reduced… I will remember that when I am trying to understand how my grocery bill keeps going up

          The Afgan treaty was signed under trump, his only imput was how to manage it, a thing that most observers would say was bad

          Ukraine is a bunch of Nazis I would not call that bad

          This is not the first ever tax, at best he is re instituting one but 1 point

          CHIPS act is needless protectionism and sabr rattling about china

          Judge apointments, while we have a supreme court that just ignore, also every president does judge apointments and he is behind target

          he did not get the cap, he is the president I do not care about his campane

          The US is not a comand economy sadly, he does not have anything to do with jobs

          I am sorry he busted the picket of the railroad workers he cannot gain a SINGLE point on union rights

          He started then he was told “Actualy would you not” and backed down nothing forgiven outside of normal workfare corses

          Who fucking cares about the stock market, also president does not directly control that

          He is funding and aiding the genocide in Isn’treal

          Has not even made a move to fill the under full USPS board of governors, let alone doing that to put a PMG who does not have a vested intrest in destorying the USPS

          That timeline is too late, not enough teeth, and he does not push back when companies say “we just cannot do it”

          Red flag laws do not do anything, there is no fix to the systemic issues of gun violance, the US is not the higest rates of gun ownership in the world yet we top gun violance

          Yet no decrease in police excessive force, this has been little more than lip service

          Agian, president cannot control the job market

          nato is an Imperalist project and bad for the world

          in 4 years you named 1 good thing, congratulations
