And for what it's worth, when people I disagree with post articles and videos, I actually READ/WATCH them and then comment on the content. I'm not seeing a lot of other people doing that here. Mostly just making fun of stuff they haven't actually seen or read.

Stupid is as stupid does (not says).

I ignore what politicians say and watch what they do. Check out Biden's political track record. There is no "there", there.

I very much like what Trump has accomplished in less than four years even WITH an MSM fighting him at every turn. Quite impressive, actually.

Actually, he really hasn’t done that much. It’s pretty much all a mirage supported by his own braggadocio and the RWM and its followers. Yes, they have “lists”, one of which will probably be posted now, but a careful analysis of them shows that they don’t amount to much at all.
He is clearly the laziest ever. He spends most of his time tweeting and watching FOX so that he knows what to tweet and “think”. He has pretty much sold put the nation to Putin so that he can get his Trump Tower in Moscow after he leaves office. He clearly can’t think deeply so everything he does is in whims rather than on analysis. His inaction in the early portion of the pandemic plunged the nation into a deeper crisis than needed. He was more interested in running around to play golf and have rallies. His once-again daily COVID briefings consist of him reading bland comments from a script and making outrageously dumb comments when he goes rogue.
And people are watching. And making up their minds. The latter portion of the Oz movie comes to mind.

I think he did quite a bit before the pandemic. And what makes it incredible is that this is with an MSM attacking at every turn and, eventually, a house in scorched earth mode from day one.

That he got anything done at all is amazing.

I remember when they were voting on Obamacare. The press was saying that he was getting no wins and he really needed that one.

Umm, no matter what you right wingers claim, the fact is that almost every non-English immigrant that came to the US over the centuries did not know English. Italian, German, Chinese, you name it. They often set up enclaves in the cities or towns where they talked to one another in their native language and had newspapers promoted in that language. It was normally the second generation that became fluent in English. The immigrants from south of the border are no different. The second generation will not only use English, but will WANT to do so in order to fit into society.
It’s always been that way, and it hasn’t changed a bit today.

Yep. Every successful person that was "second generation" immigrant who's biography I ever read said that in their home they were FORCED to use English. When you immigrate to a country that speaks a language other than your own, the first step to success is to become fluent in that nation's tongue.

A comical side note: I'm in IT and work with a lot of guys from India. They converse in English because they all come from different Indian dialects. Their one common denominator is English.

Just a word to the wise, no person is "you right wingers". I won't slap a group identity on you, and then pile all of that "group's" sins on you, mkay?
