Predict date Dow Jones 📈 hits 40,000!

Unfortunately coming over here reminded me of Space and NKOTB’s bothsidesism. 🤮

Anyway looks like tomorrow could be the day…



If Trump was president this is all republicans would talk about but because it’s Biden all we hear is how everything has gone to shit. 💩

2024?

Id that what next year is? Yeah 2024. Sorry, Trumpbiden brain.

As if any of the trials are ever going to take place. LOL.

First, this is fake.  Money is fake and the stock market is 100% fake  That's like saying Biden should get credit for the Tooth Fairy leaving more money.

Second, I don't think both sides are the same.  For example, Trump never militarily backed a genocide.

Oh, he will. About 10 months from now.

This is the kind of lunacy that got us in trouble in the first place.

He'll continue a genocide in about 10 months.

If Israel wanted to exterminate the Palestinian people in Gaza it could do it before I click post.

Making crazy unfounded accusations doesn’t do your credibility any favors.

Although it may pain you to accept, the US has very limited leverage with Israel. This isn’t Israel in 1955 or even 1982. Biden can tell Netanyahu whatever he wants but Bibi doesn’t have to listen and in fact isn’t listening.

correct, he prefers mass killings of civilians via non-military methods

Let's predict the day Hutch becomes/became a 401K millionaire.

I mean, you do know how many people died of COVID under Biden, right?

more than under trump (~600k vs 400k), however:
1) trump's admin had 10 months of pandemic, biden's admin covered 28 months. the first graph in this article shows that the deaths were not front-loaded.
2) biden inherited a mess and immediately set about improving the situation thus there is no concept of "excess deaths" associated with biden's response. 

the criticism here isn't that some americans died under trump - that was inevitable, unfortunately - it's that 180,000 more people died that would otherwise be expected, primarily due to trump's policies and statements (i.e., because of trump).  dunno about you, but having 180k people die because a leader prioritized his image and reelection campaign over the lives of civilians skirts awfully close to genocide territory.

anyhoo, i think we can agree that in november, we'll have a choice between two old men who are willing to put political considerations above the lives of civilians.

I bet not.

Biden oversaw more deaths from COVID and the the worst, most deadly spike a year into his presidency…i don't think you can chalk that up to "oh he's still dealing with a mess".  If you're going to say Trump's policies were responsible for 180,000 deaths (and they were), can you can't say Biden's policies didn't do the same.

Look, Trump…disgusting, evil piece of shit who should absolutely be put against the wall for his actual crimes.  And there are plenty of ways to convincingly point out that Biden is better (for example, he's got way less credible accusations of sexual misconduct!), but their handling of COVID ain't one.

I think I said the same on here years ago. Nobody ever mentions it but more died from Covid under Biden. It’s just a fact.

And if you subscribe to the idea that the buck stops with the president not sure one can not lay it at Biden’s feet. Although it’s not clear to me he did anything wrong. He did what he was supposed to do: follow the advice of those that supposedly knew the most.

The truth is we will never know what we did wrong or who is to blame or even how it started or what China really knew early on. It’s just very complicated. It’s going to be like the great influenza: society will move on and there will be different theories about what happened.

you missed my point: deaths were inevitable, for any president.  even with the perfect, science-based policies.  the question is, did a president's policies contribute additional deaths above and beyond what an adequate response would bring?  studies are conclusive: 180k more americans died under trump due to his mismanagement.  there simply isn't one for biden, but please let me know if you find one.

the "worst, most deadly spike a year into his presidency" was due to a new variant (delta) that was more virulent didn't respond to vaccination as well as previous variants.  same with the later omicron variant.  those aren't policy-related spikes.

biden did inherit a mess - and look at the curve for the first year of his presidency.  amazing what promoting & enhancing access to the vaccine can do (AKA policy decisions).  and i didn't say that the only reason was dealing with the inherited mess, please don't reduce my argument to just one point  :)

yes one can.  trump policies directly resulted in additional death that could have been avoided.  he called for ignoring the issue and hoping it would just go away (despite being told that it wouldn't), putting off the shutdown as long as possible, promoting quackery like ivermectin, and casting doubt on the vaccine.  i will however give credit to trump for green-lighting project warp speed even though he didn't do anything with the resulting vaccine - he was too busy plotting his coup).  how you can say that they are both the same, and that the pandemic would have unfolded in the same way regardless of who was in the white house, is baffling.

strongly disagree.  you cannot paint their approaches to covid with the same brush.

That’s bull Sweetcell. You can’t say those deaths were inevitable.

You could say there is no evidence they were preventable.

Not sure I agree with that though…

the market(s) are doing well bc they are pricing in a trump win in nov. at least that is what trump said.

Ha ha ha
