The only sucker here is you and your batshit insane MAGAnuts who support him. Biden will
always be known for the great work he did for this nation - djt, will always be known for his
failures, criminality and treason.

All Trump has done is force through $4T+ Deficit Inflating Bills, and get conned into a losing war..

...conversely, Joe Biden passed bipartisan legislation that benefitted all Americans...i.e. the Infrastructure Bill...CHIPS Bill...Inflation Reduction Bill...along with getting us out from under the COVID-19 pandemic and delivering the lowest inflation rate of any developed country, while ending the Afghanistan War...and not starting another one.

Don't throw stones when you live in a glass house, Ned.

Peaceful co-existence is almost always in the national interest. And we had achieved that with Iran, with the JCPOA.

There is a direct line between the US reneging on that deal in 2018 and the war now. And we will have a festering wound there for the rest of our lives.

Thanks, Trump.

Which is obviously a pipe dream since the psychopaths always rise to the top of the hierarchy in 5% of the places in any given time. But it's still the proper aim, IMO.

JFK .... that covers my lifetime.

Disagreed with some on policy and other things, but they all had competent and experienced folks in their Administrations .... and none of whom would have blown up the JCPOA, and then gone to war last month.
