Good question! Off the top of my head; no border control, terrible afghanistan withdrawl (but props he went through with it), pushing us closer to WW3 (see recent new of China doing joint exercises in Belarus), continued reckless spending done by trump, continued funding of Ukraine enabling deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, funding bombs dropped on Gaza, and more!

Border control? Now you know how the native Indians felt. I have no idea why so many Central American countries are unstable, which forces people to migrate to somewhere they perceived as safer for their families.

Afghanistan was baby Bush’s mess. Do we blame Nixon for pulling out of Vietnam?

Closer to WW3? Really, I must have missed that memo because I don’t see that happening.

Cut funding to Ukraine. Hmmmm… give in to bully Putin you mean. And you bring up China: How would China act on the global stage if they saw the US tucked tail to run in Ukraine? Embolden for sure.

As for Gaza, annoying orange would have bent over backwards to appease AIPAC and glassed Gaza.

But let’s ask what the fake tanned arsewiped did for two whole years that he had full control of the house, senate and WH? Tax cut for himself? What else…?

And who can forget the one million dead from covid, because he made it political. No other country in the world suffered the impact the US had. Guess injecting bleach or looking directly at an eclipse without protective glasses on isn’t clever.

I love when you guys defend indefensible policies. I can give you a deep dive on any one of these things, but you will just say some random nonsense that you think sounds good.

Indefensible? Like wanting a pedophile, rapist, convicted felon as party leader? What is wrong with you? That’s some serious malfunction if you look at him and say “yup, he’s dur one fur mee”
