Not even at their own game. He played by his own rules. That is why they hate him so much. US troops coming home from foreign wars, lower-taxes, African-Americans being employed at higher rates than ever before, no wonder they loathed him so much. He was a breath of fresh air.

But Trump did himself no favours. Effectively done his own legs when he let Bannon go. That was a critical mistake. Bannon is perhaps the most politically astute person of the 21st century. Should have been kept on the inside at all costs, including damaging family ties.

As to the rest of your post, then spot on. Biden is bad beyond belief. Everything you have said and more.

The US is entering some dark-days now although I must admit to chuckling a little at Biden's choice of assistant health secretary. If you are going to troll the Right then that is the way to do it. Have to give a little kudos for that.

Absolutely accurate about Biden, some well known, some rumoured. Only an idiot would think he's the messiah, or even worse, squeaky clean. As you say, he's a career politician... But, on balance, right now, he's better than obese chops, who, compared with the lengthly list of negatives you present with Biden, has come off somewhat lightly in your post. There's a lot more Trump negatives you could counterbalance with than just 'blunt, abrasive and undiplomatic.'

Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons.

Thanks for the laugh!

If anyone wants a "rampant misinformation campaign" today then you have provided one.

I have to wonder whether those who defend Trump will ever realise that those who oppose him, who are many and various, don't do so because he won in 2016 and was different. It's not just the "media" or the "establishment". It's not just the "normies" being fed a diet by those people. It's everyone with their eyes, ears and brains open and functioning. You don't need to filter anything through the opinions of others. You just need to have observed Trump.

Biden is a stopgap. Getting rid of Trump was always the priority and ensuring there was an experienced safe pair of hands to hold the reins for a while the aim. Trump was a disastrous experiment which has set the USA back for years and cost many American lives.

Excluding the civil war and WW2 Covid 19 has cost more American lives than all other wars put together. This will be Trump's real legacy because the paucity of his response contributed massively to that number. His frequent claims, often backed up on here, that he hasn't "started any wars" conveniently ignores the fact that the war on his doorstep has been dismissed as a nuisance that gets in the way of the economy.

It's for this and his other similar warped ideas that he had to go and nothing whatsoever with anyone's pride being damaged.

Biden won't "screw up"! He may well not be able to solve many of the huge problems but he will steer a safe course and get the ship of state into calmer waters so that a new era can begin.

You must have a sense of humour that passes me by. Never mind. If you found it funny I am happy for you.

Your second point is true though. There are always exceptions and boy oh boy was Trump an exception! He will keep historians busy writing books for centuries.

I don't think you'll find he's that Historically significant in the end. No one remembers the last Roman Emperor, for example. In my opinion, the lustre has worn off of the United States. The political frenzy we are witnessing is the last throes of dominant Western Power as we know it. We are in a transitional phase. Empires and Superpowers come and go, rise and fall. It's one of a few constants we can rely on.
This is not a prophesy of doom. Q didn't send me. Just stating the obvious: nothing lasts forever.

Red and Blue Army!

Your first point is a given.
I was surprised to read that Trump’s infamous wall has continued, albeit most of the 400+ miles built replaced that already existing. I didn’t know there was already 650 miles of wall in place when he took over.
