I’m not sure it makes sense to talk of them as of separate figures. The US state policy, internal and foreign, under both is eerily similar and continuous, with Trump it looked like “dumpster fire of the day”, with Biden (and Obama before Trump) it looked like “another careful calculated decision”, but they are all in the same general direction.

Biden cleaned up Trump’s mess and avoided a complete imminent global financial collapse.

Was it really Biden, though? Global economy is self-organizing and kinda reliable, like the Internet (by design, not by its real topology and those big underwater cables with no backup connecting whole continents).

no backup connecting whole continents

Wtf are you talking about, there are dozens of them, its literally a huge network of cables.

Theres a whole website about it

Also, global economy is highly fragile, it can take one major investment bubble like in 2008 or event like Covid in 2020 to shake its foundations. Countries all over the world have to pump shitloads of money into it to keep the economy in a state where it won‘t collapse.

There are places connected by only one or two and there are issues with load in case a lucky combination of those gets sabotaged etc.
