    No, of course not!

    But if we keep with tradition, we must blame everything from natural disasters to acts of terror on POTUS! And of course the current admin. doesn't get credit for anything positive until year 3, because that was already happening before they took office.

    Every four-eight years rinse and repeat!

    24 hours into Befuddled Joe's Flying Circus and already... I've got a theme song for the Lefties here, the Isley Brothers 1962 classic "Twist and Shout". We may not have much fun with our finances or freedoms over the next 4 years, but we'll DAMN SURE have a ball here!!!

    That makes sense. The Democrat Party and their State Media set a precedent that the President of the United States is responsible for every wrong, every sadness, and every evil in the country. They are also the party that believes that government Authority is responsible for fixing all our woes. So, Joe is the head of the fish now.

    I broke my shoestring this morning. It's Joe Biden's fault. Dementia Man Bad.

    hmmm maybe you seem to forget that is what Biden was spewing. Unity was going to be had by all. The left also went on a rant how about the buck stops with Trump. So that means this is all on Biden now. Typical washingon swamp rat.

    . . . just putting a number next to a day isn't a "plan." Trump had no plan for distribution. He claimed he was going to roll out the military for massive distribution, but that was another one of his lies. Yes, 100 million shots in 100 days is ambitious and will likely require federal coordination.

    What we've actually been doing per day so far: https://www.statista.com/chart/23967/covid-19-vaccine-doses-administered-per-day-in-the-us/
    No, it isn't the "same plan" and it won't be easy: https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/covi...tions-in-the-first-100-days-it-wont-be-easy#1

    Just curious... are there any Trump supporters who AREN'T "radicals"? How far do you think the PTB in DC should be able to go to rectify those radicals?

    Same plan.

    Seems to depend on state governors' ability to manage, or not. Health is ultimately up to each state.

    Some states are doing just fine.

    In other words, you have not even bothered to look into any of this at all. No, it is not the same plan. This plan involves much more federal help in order to coordinate and reach this goal.

    I think it will be worse than just a lack of unity. If these fools actually become convinced they can punish or "reeducate" millions of Americans who supported Trump, they will effectively create the radicalism they say they fear.

    Plutocracy baby. They claim to "be over there" to keep them from coming "over here'(meanwhile rescinding a travel ban, which is absolutely hilarious.). The real truth is, defense contractors need to get paid, politicians don't get paid to solve problems but to create them for others(damn that's a haiku in of itself). So yep, our soldiers will once again be cannon fodder for the 100 year war. Long live Plutocracy in the US.

    I'm curious how the military will help roll out these vaccines faster than they can be made. Does anyone know the details of that?

    Twenty-Four hours and the Biden war on US energy production has started. Now that the Keystone pipeline is halted the Canadian oil will be shipped across Canada and from there to China to be burned.

    We did largely succeed for the most part, there was a small pocket left but in contrast to Trumps 'bomb their families' remark, he decided not to pull the trigger on the rest. Now had he done so, there would've been a complaint there as well. But frankly, I think so long as we don't want to actually acquire or govern over these territories, our wars there are fruitless(at best), and at worst, creating more enemies for the inevitable at some point American defeat.

    It will take such a defeat for us to say "Politics as normal is not acceptable, we need a new foreign policy."

    Did you read the links you posted? When Biden talks 1 million vaccinations per day what he means is 500 million people will get their first shot and those same people will get the second round later. The chart you posted shows that we are already rolling out more vaccines today than Biden's "plan". That information is from your links.

    Anyway, it matters not how much Biden wants to exercise authoritarian federal control over this virus. State governors are in charge and they can accept or reject his plan in part or altogether.

    Biden is simply more likely to waste hundreds of millions of taxpayer money on bureaucrats, administrators and consultants. Figuring out way to spend more of our money is Biden's resume, his job history, and his sole area of expertise.

    Having Big Government try to forcibly re-educate people who just want government to get out of their hair and let them live their lives into pretending to love Big Government doesn't seem like a very good strategy to me, but hey, Biden is the "unity" expert now. We'll see how 2022 turns out for that plan.

    Biden's even got his own GOV Twitter account, so the President will still be tweeting LOL. Democrats really didn't improve anything at all.

    Yep, on Day One, Biden killed 11,000 jobs, wiping out $2 billion in income.

    1. As far as I can tell, American Liberals are the only ones who actually like Kurds. All of their neighbors despise them.

    I don’t disagree, just with the idea that trump will pull them out, then blame Biden if it turns to ****. If we don’t want troops there, we have to accept what that’ll mean.

    Might want to explain to the rioters in Portland and other cities how great Biden is as they seem to hate him as well. ;)

    I'm sure our resident Anti-Fa Portland Native will explain how a few Proud Boys were entering the state so they just had to riot to you know fight bigotry or something.

    Trump's policies were far more popular with the public. Democrat policies are not terribly popular, which is why they have to attack on "Racist, Sexist, Misogynist" bullying propaganda. No one should be surprised if nothing gets improved for the next few years Biden has promised a "Dark Winter" and yesterday said this is the "Winter of Peril". Well then, that's where he is leading.
