That's so stupid. Of course he was disliked abroad. He was providing amnesty to Hispanic immigrants. Hispanic AMERICANS loved him though.

Who would you say is, then?

Clinton and Reagan in my lifetime. I think history will bear that out.

I can’t even believe this is a serious thread.

This is both Obama and Biden, but spouse and I were able to leave employment that trapped us with health care benefits, because of the ACA. We were able to start and nurture a successful small business which includes providing employment to a dozen employees. Go Joe!

Family member works for tiny business with no benefits. Health insurance price has more than quadrupled since the ACA. It is less affordable.

For your family member. But not for PP. So, who wins?

p.s. maybe your family member should go find a different job. Or even better, join the cause of universal health care so that no one has to rely on their employer to get decent affordable insurance.

I’m center-left. Born in 1988. Of all the presidents in my lifetime, Biden, whom I voted for but not in the primary, has come closest to making my own (middle class) life meaningfully better. He has taken reasonable and pragmatic action on student loans. He is staying strong on Ukraine without doing anything stupid. He’s rescheduled marijuana. His NLRB has been fantastic. He’s good on infrastructure and not terrible on the environment. He’s softened the blow of a looming recession. He’s old, but a sane and rational adult. He’s not perfect, but he has earned the vote of this former Bernie-or-Buster.

Completely agree.

I think that history will be particularly kind to Biden. He's overseeing a great economy, managed the transition from COVID to post-COVID very well, passed a great infrastructure bill, the IRA will likely prove to be a fantastic investment, and his reintroduction of industrial policy is leading to reshoring well-paying jobs. He's repaired our image abroad, strengthened old alliances, and has helped Ukraine stave off Russia and exposed them as a paper tiger with minimal investment and zero US casualties.

Fifty years from now, people will look at is low approval ratings and wonder what the hell most people were thinking. Republicans are pitching a hissy-fit for no reason other than the (D) next to his name, and people are wringing his hands because he's old, but whatever. Dude's killing it.

I thought for a moment I must have started this thread myself. Except I was born in 1973. And I completely agree.

Similar birth year and I mostly agree. To have a president who is so steady in an incredibly rocky time (Covid, war, economic uncertainty) and make progress in an important areas. There is no way a Republican president could have navigated this inflationary period with any kind of steady hand and decent solution. Clinton was a great president, too. Too bad he was such a womanizer…

I can’t believe history hasn’t held Reagan more accountable for the failed trickle down strategy that kicked our country off on a terrible debt cycle. His tax cuts for the rich continue to do awful things for the middle class.

Reagan gets a lot of credit for foreign policy, “ending the Cold War.” Never mind Iran-Contra. He beat the Commies, that’s all that matters. His domestic policies were an abject failure.

I’ve never met a Hispanic named Ronald or Reagan for that matter.

I think Biden could:
1. do more to reduce the chaos around border and immigration
2. do more to solve our lousy healthcare system
3. do more to protect the federal workforce and civilian agencies

Beyond that, I think he's doing a great job.

"If You hear nothing else I say tonight, hear this: Anyone who’s responsible for not taking control, in fact… saying I take no responsibility initially, anyone who’s responsible for that many deaths should not remain as president of the United States of America,” - Oct 22, 2020 - Joe Biden commenting on Covid killing a quarter of a million people

"Biden marks one million U.S. COVID deaths after losing political battles" - May 12, 2022, Reuters

“We didn’t see Delta coming. I think most scientists did not — upon whose advice and direction we have relied — didn’t see Delta coming,” Harris told the Los Angeles Times in a year-end interview. “We didn’t see Omicron coming. And that’s the nature of what this, this awful virus has been, which as it turns out, has mutations and variants.” - Dec 18, 2021. OK Joe. Whatever.


Yes, Joe is on top of things.

2. What? Obamacare not meeting all your hopes, dreams and aspirations? Who knew.

The more you do, the worse things get.

It’s been a great few years for myself, family and friends. The job market was so good from late 2021 to early 2023. Almost all of my friends switched jobs for more $$ during that time, some like me did twice. It was really a historic opportunity to get your income up, the last time it was like that was the .com bubble when I was just starting out (good memories). My salary is up 90% since 2021! All my friends have done really well, job hopping was key to 30%+ raises for all of them.

My expenses have barely increased. Mortgage is locked at a low rate, house price shot up after covid. My stocks have been great, Net worth is way up. I’m a big Ukraine supporter, so very pleased with Biden’s support there. My best friend works in the semi conductor industry, the CHIPS act has been huge for him. He consults says he’s never been so busy even after he increased his rates. My social circle is just killing it in their careers, good times under Biden. Even my factory worker fav cousin went from$25/hr to $38/hr, which for him was life changing. Good times, and Biden’s economic has definitely worked for us!

How many of those deaths were anti-vaxxer MAGAs?
