[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s Obama’s third term and he wants a fourth. [/quote]

This is the truth.  Obama is running the Biden administration.[/quote]

That simply doesn't make sense. Biden's policy decisions are too fragmented and incoherent to have come from a single person. [/quote]

Most of his policy decisions have been completely consistent and aligned to his campaign promises, his published White House goals and strategic plans and so on.

For example:

COVID-19 Response: Control the pandemic through widespread testing, clear public health guidance, and ensuring vaccines are free and available to everyone. The policy approach has been clear and targeted.

Economy and Jobs:  Focus on infrastructure, manufacturing, and clean energy jobs. Support small businesses. The passage of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the proposals under the Build Back Better plan show a strong alignment with his economic goals of creating jobs and investing in infrastructure. While not all components of the Build Back Better plan were passed, the direction remains clear and consistent with his campaign rhetoric.

Healthcare: Expand access to affordable healthcare, protect and build on the Affordable Care Act (ACA), and lower prescription drug prices.  The Biden administration has been expanding access to healthcare through enhanced ACA subsidies, in line with campaign promises. Efforts to lower prescription drug prices continue to be a priority, even if legislative progress has been slower than desired.

Climate Change: Re-enter the Paris Agreement, achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, and invest in renewable energy.  Biden signed the re-entry into the Paris Agreement immediately on taking office. The alignment here is strong, with policy actions directly supporting stated objectives.

Foreign Policy: Rebuilding alliances and standing up to authoritarian regimes, as seen in actions related to NATO and Ukraine, align well with Biden's stated foreign policy goals. The Afghanistan withdrawal, while controversial, was part of a longstanding promise to end U.S. military involvement there.

Biden is following through on what he campaigned on.  I don't see what you think is "fragmented and incoherent" - give some specific examples.[/quote]

No citations to show how Biden's policies are "fragmented and incoherent" - in other words, you just made it up, like so many other things.[/quote]

95% of the hysterical threads about Trump here have no citation or a citation from New Republic or Raw Story or some weird news app run by the Chinese government. Also used: “everyone knows.” A democrat posted one news story from 2011 and one from 2013 to try to justify the Biden administration’s strong opposition to allowing lower enlisted military personnel to get a raise so they can afford their rent in Biden’s roaring economy.[/quote]
