Well, you see, Biden was more polite about it, though.


And, okay, but you gotta admit there's some ways Biden was less bad:

  • Didn't fuck as many kids, as egregiously, and hasn't been credibly accused of killing any of them or of forcing them to get abortions.

  • Didn't fuck up the global economy with dumbass trade wars and dumbass regular wars.

  • Didn't hate and persecute trans people nearly as much.

  • Didn't try to fuck with elections.

  • Didn't attempt to control the media

  • Didn't invite his billionaire buddy to come do Nazi salutes on stage on live TV.

  • Didn't try to sell off national park land to oil companies and logging companies.

  • Didn't dismantle the leadership of federal agencies and try to install his unqualified cronies instead.

  • Was arguably doing the best he could to get the economy back on track and inflation under control, instead of doing the exact opposite.

  • Didn't accept extravagant 'totally not a bribe' gifts from semi-hostile foreign nations.

  • Didn't bulldoze a third of the White House without the required authorization.

  • Didn't attempt to arrest and prosecute a former Olympic athlete for touching water.

  • Etc, etc, etc.

I'm no Biden fan. Far from it. But you've got to admit that Trump is demonstrably, materially worse in a lot of ways.

    Yes he did.

    Yes he did.

    Didn’t try to sell off national park land to oil companies and logging companies.

    Yes he did.

    Was arguably doing the best he could to get the economy back on track and inflation under control, instead of doing the exact opposite.

    I didn't see that happen at all.

    Didn’t accept extravagant ‘totally not a bribe’ gifts from semi-hostile foreign nations.

    Yes he did.

    The rest I agree with.

    But you’ve got to admit that Trump is demonstrably, materially worse in a lot of ways.

    I do agree that Biden was marginally better. But that's not the claim that was made. The claim was that Biden was "still infinity better".
