I believe Cheeto Mussolini should be in prison, but they asked voters what they think that Biden/Trump would want from another term.
For completeness sake and to save anyone else from visiting The Daily Mail.
It's meant to be negative but seems pretty chill to me.
Honestly, after having Trump in office for 4 years, Biden’s milquetoast term has been refreshing. It’s nice to wake up every morning and not have to read about the president of the United States beefing with a 12 year old girl on Twitter overnight for the third time in a month.
Biden is boring. But I’m tired of living through what will inevitably be several chapters in future World History textbooks; I could use some more “boring” in politics, because “boring” is stable and predictable.
First president to ever join the picket lines, telling pharmaceutical companies the gov will snatch their taxpayer funded patents away if they keep gouging, big steps toward cannabis, major efforts to forgive student loans, lowest inflation rate in the g7, lowest unemployment rate in a very long time, personally involved in getting ceasefires and the like in Gaza, etc etc
I’m no Biden cheerleader but you’re being quite reductive
While I agree, the general perception is that Biden is boring. He (and democrats in general) is really really bad at championing his own successes. Biden has accomplished a lot, but he has done it without fanfare or news coverage.
Meanwhile, Trump couldn’t even fart without the media turning it into front page news. Because the media quickly realized that Trump headlines sell views, but Biden headlines don’t. So Biden doesn’t get the same kind of 24/7 media barrage that Trump got. And that makes Biden seem hilariously boring in comparison. When you aren’t constantly waking up to news of how the president almost started a major international scandal due to a tweet he sent at 3AM, things seem pretty chill.
Yup. Trump's been blithely called America's "reality TV president" but it's nonetheless true. Right-wing voters want to be entertained far more than they want effective government.
Because to them, Trump's failure to govern is also the point, so it's doubly positive - someone entertaining swinging a sledgehammer to all of those "liberal" safety nets, institutions. They'd prefer government simply cease to exist. (Until at least it's their house that's burning down and needs the fire department; or their roads that are falling apart.)
Trump's version for comparison.
LOL, "economy". As if dipshit donnie diapers has any good policies for the economy. Oh, and "freedom".....wtaf. That doesn't mean the Northern kind.
