Didn’t Biden for months tried to intervene by other political means to stop bibi war intentions ?
Was that only to win the election too ?

None of the other ways had him hold off supplying bombs which he begged congress to approve . Diplomatic means I have no issue with

Well what do you suggest afterwards when political means do not work ?

Biden just has absolutely horrendous foreign policy instincts.

He's strengthening Bibi's position and limiting Bibi's options.

I am not sure Biden realizes that's what he is doing.

What do you mean by this?

Good on Biden on pissing off both sides now . He’s now the Pro Hamas President and genocide Joe

Well as if any actions he takes it would of been different anyway …

It’s really amazing

The biggest reason to prefer Biden to Trump just evaporated

Jfc it's really bad

The biggest reason to prefer Biden to Trump has always been that he's not Trump.

I’m not sure but all those folks that said Trumps Tariffs on China bad seem to be quiet now ? Hmmm

The biggest reason to prefer Biden over Trump is the future selection of the supreme court justices. The reason Abortion is illegal in a number of red states right now is because of Trump appointed judges in the Supreme Court. There have also been a number of other critical issues like Voter Rights Act which the current supreme court and many appointed federal judges have started undoing.

Other reasons to prefer Biden aside from the appointment of judges would be pro choice abortion rights, racism, antisemitism, fighting white supremacy, LGTBQ rights, support for actual education (without banning history of slavery, gays, etc.), child poverty help (like the increased tax credit $), he doesn't lie anywhere near as much as Trump, NATO support, facing Kim Jung Un and Putin rather than caving in, immigration (by allowing immigration at the border inflation was reduced significantly as there were now workers available to pick food agriculturally where otherwise the food would have rotted on the vine)

Chinese tariffs are like at the bottom of the list. It is true that people will have to pay more for things but the flip side is that substantial number of jobs in the energy industry would end up defaulting away from the US. In the case of computer chips, electric vehicles, and production of electric energy sources this could mean huge trade deficits. Which in turn could lower the value of the dollar and cause prices to go up on imports.

I wonder if those tariffs on China announcement isn’t a preventative move « already » discuss/agreeing between China/US about China eventually devaluating their currency.

Many China/US officials meeting did happen lately .
With the Japanese yen going down so much in the past year is a real pain for the competitiveness of China .

Not for me sorry no.

Gorsuch is possibly the best SCOTUS judge to ever occupy a seat. Better than Scalia already. An absolute hero for lovers of freedom.

Check in particular when he agrees with the "liberals", given you come from a different political philosophy I come from.

There was a case where Gorsuch and RBG were the only two contrarian votes.

Two real, actual, legal geniuses like you are lucky to find in a whole generation, coming from wholly different legal philosophies and agreeing because that's the actual only moral, legal, rational way to interpret the constitution.

The government abuses its power against the will of the writers of the constitution when it allows state trials over matters already judged by federal trials and viceversa

Fighting white supremacy, LGBT rights, abortion and many other things aren't constitutional rights.

It's eversive to think judges should rule as you like even if the text doesn't agree with you. It's against the rule of law and pillars of society.

Your so biased if Trump had announced this you would be all over him

I think you missed the point of my post.

The most important thing for me about Biden is that he wouldn't appoint the kind of Supreme Court Justices that Trump has appointed. The reason Roe v Wade was overturned. The public perception of the Supreme Court is as low as it has ever been and i am one of those that think they suck right now. There are many decisions that have been made that are absurd and are not really law based.

As far as fighting white supremacy, LGBTQ rights, immigration, abortion rights, etc. I prefer Biden to Trump. It has nothing to do with the supreme court or the legal system. Your point in your post was that China Tariff's are the most important reason to like Biden. Its about the least important for me.

As usual you are wrong .
I know it’s hard for specimen like u that because you are drowning in biais u believed everyone are to not feel bad about it ….
Actually it was maybe one of the few thing that was good economically trump did and I was agreeing with it with another poster couple years ago …
As I wrote even recently and even arguing about the unfair advantages of China devaluing , Tarrifs are one of the few strategy to check mate China on its unfair devaluing of its currency to gain worldwide market share .
They did it for decades .

Isn’t fighting white supremacy just a form of fighting racism? If so, you seemed to list that twice. I’m not sure how Biden is better than trump on fighting racism - it seemed like racism had this massive downward trajectory pre-Biden and the dem led DEI interrupted that trend. The good news is people have woken up to figure out DEI is just racism by another name so the downward trend of racism will continue no matter who the president is.

Why do you think antisemitism is better under Biden than trump? It seems the right is less tolerant on antisemitism.

The left pushed for school closures far more than the right during and post Covid so there is no way the left is better for education than the right.

Immigration does not reduce inflation. We need a source to suppport that.

Immigration does reduce inflation when it's agricultural workers, or blue collar workers immigrating in not expensive areas of the USA.

The pressure on local rents isn't much and they contribute to keep prices lower for food and goods for Americans.

Immigration concentrated in already expensive cities, especially when it's not even necessarily people immediately getting to work in open positions (ie, asylum seekers in NYC) is terrible for inflation. They consume, they cause increases in rents, and they don't reduce prices enough if at all with their contribution to supply

The democrats in general are terrible wrt asylum seekers (they encourage more to come, even if mismatched in their skills vs open positions in the job market), mainstream republicans are usually optimal for immigration (easy for needed workers, hard for the rest), trump and nativists in general are terrible because they block even the good, useful immigrants

On the bright side I listed it only once in my second post.

Trump has called Hispanic immigrants animals, rapists, drug dealers, etc. All of that is racist. His entire deal with immigration when he was President is that immigrants from places like Eastern Europe were fine and coming from Africa and South and Central America shouldn't be allowed. Which is basically racist.

Donald Trump had a Neo Nazi to dinner at Mar a Lago. If his son in law wasn't Jewish the antisemitism would have been much more public.

School closures during Covid had nothing to do with education and everything to do with trying to protect older teachers, older parents, grandparents living with children at school.

When my children were in school I used to get sick about twice a school year typically getting the flu or a cold. My son was in high school when Covid hit and I was like 64. I am very grateful for the school closure, and my son did continue taking his classes via Zoom.

Seriously?

Here is one article on it

Here is another article

Recent history does not support your claim that immigration has a serious effect on inflation. Trump had less immigrants than obama and inflation didn't spike and then immigration soared under biden and inflation has avg. 5.6% per year.

Monetary policy determines inflation - not immigration or tariffs. It was the very well dem supported policies of shutting down parts of the economy, printing too much money for too long after covid and throwing too much money into the economy that caused a major increase in inflation.

Any person who believes that trump would be the same or worse than biden on inflation either hasn't been paying attention or doesn't understand inflation.
