The soft landing from Covid was damn near miraculous. Chips and science act, inflation reduction act, bipartisan infrastructure bills, record stock market, holding together the western alliance while under threat. This guy knew how to get shit done.

Considering he pulled it off while demented, it's a genius act

Gotta remember that it's more than just the president, it's who you bring with you. He brought the best people he could, and he had a calm, rational mind.

The new guy...uh...not so much.

🥭thinks he knows everything about everything and acts accordingly taking no advice and acting compulsively.

Biden knew he knew nothing about everything, picked experts on stuff, and let them do their jobs. Didn’t take credit and accepted blame.

One is a better boss and leader; one is more electable.

That. Right. There. Pretty much all I want/expect from a president.

Hire field experts. Listen to them.

JD Vance's Quote form the VP Debate:

"This has to stop. And we're not going to stop it by listening to experts. We're going to stop it by listening to common sense wisdom, which is what Donald Trump governed on."

That's half the presidency, the other half is creating a narrative story and selling that story to Americans.

He failed miserably at that.

There is a reason why Ronald Reagan, FDR, etc.are remembered, they created a story to accompany them to the policies.

Donald Trump has terrible policies, is corrupt, but boy can he sell you a story.

💯 agreed.
Clinton and Obama were much better than Biden but that's not terribly difficult.

Yeah, I'm halfway like the entertainment industry -> presidency pipeline is not necessarily bad, as long as who ever runs has the humility to know what they do not know and a keen ability to pick out if they re being BSed.

Not anymore, between the Russians, Project 2025 and Elon, Trump has no clue what he's signing or doing anymore. He's a puppet president now. Literally has no idea what's in the EOs he's signing.

Trump will pretend he's an expert on everything, but it's pretty clear he's being led by the nose by people who stroke his ego

They still let him do his petty revenge stuff though, the Russians love watching him trash random things with his chaos

True. Except for Garland. Fuck Garland.
