He wasn’t the hero we wanted but he was the hero we needed

Thank you Joe for showing us the power of being sleepy. If only we knew what was in store for us when you left

He was displaying the ancient Chinese wisdom of Wu Wei. Controlling all by doing nothing: https://www.britannica.com/topic/wuwei-Chinese-philosophy

This is why he was a good president, unlike Trump

u/SilverAd9389 Mar 07 '25

There's also the fact that he wasn't a Russian asset sent to tear down the country, that probably helped a bit as well.

u/Aemon73 Mar 07 '25

Siding with the Russians and destroying the country is just a tool for him

Your right.

He's destroying more than just the country

Listen, I'm no Biden fan-boy, but Biden was really good at one thing that made him more qualified to be president. He wasn't Trump.

u/SilverAd9389 Mar 07 '25

I agree. I'm not his greatest fan, but it doesn't take a genius to see that the hate against him was so massively blown out of proportion that it's almost frightening. I've never seen so much propaganda and hatemongering used against a presidential candidate before. And on no solid basis either. Most of it is just personal attacks about how he's old and how he's creepy, but very little criticsm is aimed at his actual policy. Trump talks all the time about how everything that's wrong in America is Biden's fault, but he can never actually link it to any policy that Biden passed. And nobody seems to question it either.

Ultimately Biden represented stability and a continuation of the status quo, which a lot of people clearly didn't want. Change was needed one way or the other. What i don't understand is how people can look at the orange trash panda and think to themselves "hmmm yes, this is the change that we need!". Voting for Trump under the hopes that he would make things better is just plain delusional, which we're seeing clearly now.

It wasn’t even so much a continuation, lots of Biden policies were hugely helpful. The CHIPS act made an investment in fixing a big national security program, the IRA made a big and needed infrastructure investment, proving millions of good jobs. The extended CTC that Manchin killed reduced child poverty by one third.

It was just regular, competent management mostly, with one huge blind spot that was more a political problem bigger than any president

Edit: also, most of the media hate was driven by Afghanistan. They loved it there and never wanted us out. Also Biden admin had deserved contempt for the press.

u/Snapdragon_4U Mar 08 '25

And Trump cancelled both the IRA and CHIPS.

I think the one legitimate gripe people could have with Biden was the that the border was chaos under him. Personally, I couldn't care less about the border. That shit is so far down the list of things I'm worried about it might as well be non-existent. But we do have a lot of xenophobic idiots who buy into the idea that brown people are all degenerate criminals coming over to rape and pillage.

u/Mysterious_Ad7461 Mar 07 '25

It wasn’t even that much chaos, most of it was just asylum seekers, and he got a deal with Mexico last January where they would let people stay there while their claims were processed, and that resulted in a drastic decrease in people at the border.

So even if you thought it was a big problem, it got fixed and we never did tariffs or threaten military action once, it just got handled.
