Trump’s Title 42 and Muslim ban were far worse.

Biden waited 3.5 years to end title 42 and tried to close the border. He has deported more people than Trump.

POTUS has no reasonable control over grocery store prices

He literally does though. But there's a million other things he could have done when he had control. Instead we just get excuses about how powerless the party controlling both houses and the presidency was because of Manchin or the parliamentarian or the SCOTUS or some rules the dems set for themselves or norms or whatever.

There's no point in quibbling about whether Biden was less bad than trump, these actions decrease how many people will vote for him. Implementing policy that makes you lose the election is refusing to stand in republican's way.

Wrong.

Biden ended the Muslim Ban on Jan 21, 2021, the day after he was inaugurated.

He ended Title 42 on May 20, 2022, but the measure was stopped by federal judges. It took until May of 2023 to be completed.

Nobody is talking about the Muslim ban, we're talking about the more recent attempt to close the mexican border.

But it's irrelevant, you're still missing the point.

My point is that Biden's unpopular actions decrease how many people will vote for him. This is how Biden ensures Trump will come to power.

Did you not read the second half of my comment? He ended Title 42 a year and a half after taking office. Federal judges stopped it for a year.

You wrote three and a half years.

You fabricate information in your comments often. I will always call out misinformation.

Cite your sources and stop with the lies.

Incidentally, you quoted my point about the Muslim ban in your previous comment. So yeah, we were certainly talking about it.

Biden has done plenty of good where Trump did nothing or actively worsened things for the working class, minorities, and the planet. You only select Biden’s worst policies to define his presidency.

@disguy_ovahea

You shouldn't engage with this guy. Its always a bait and switch/ false premise/ straw man with this guy.

You make a point about an actual bill (the mexican border bill), he makes it about trump and a muslim ban.

Its always in bad faith. Its a condition of blue MAGA.

Read the thread you’re so confident in condemning.

I cited my statements while your friend here repeatedly made false claims.

The Mexican Border bill you’re referring to is an Executive Order, not congressional legislation. Trump’s border Executive Order was the Muslim ban. Neither of which required congressional approval, and therefore are directly equatable.

Maybe you two should get a place together in misinformation land.

Just downvote and move along.

Blue fash is still fash. They aren't an allie.

In 2016 I voted for Bernie in the primary, and Hillary in the election.

Using my civic duty to compromise for the lesser of two evils does not make me a fascist.

Name calling is unproductive and childish. Have a conversation or find someone else to use as your stepladder to superiority.
