And can't handle the truth, even from your own party.

Are you starting Dementia? As to this balloon thing check your post #16632. Trump wasn’t brought up by ANYBODY on this topic until YOU did.
WTF Paul. Stop your obsession with everything Trump and worry about your party’s Dumpster Fire in the White House!!

Serious question... Who is running this country?? It's Obviously not Biden and everyone is going to have their theories but seriously. To me, this is the biggest non talked about subject. Who is the power behind the thrown?

Ron Klain is leaving and we know that Kamala is incompetent. This is a very good question. Nothing like having shadow power actors who are unaccountable.

I don't think Trump was running the country, either.

Fair point. But at least there were competent officials like Pence, Pompeo and Barr in positions of power.
Based upon what you’ve seen could you trust Harris or Mayor Pete to even fix breakfast in the morning?

This is probably true. Think he was in a lot of the decision making tho because of his gigantic ego.

Edit: should have said more so.

Your buddies who brought Trump into the balloon discussion, aren't going to be happy you ignored them.
They brought him up in Posts #16618 and 16619, noted above.

Check with someone else to see if those numbers precede #16632. My guess is that they do.

As to Biden, given the difficulties he faces with members of the opposition, I think he has done a very credible job in the last 2 years.
Let's hope the Freedom Caucus Republicans don't screw up the US credit markets with a default.

There is no hope for this individual.
Biden has done all of this on his own with control of the White House and both houses of Congress.
The country has been a Clusterfutch for 2 years but Paul lives in a well governed Red State that has low energy prices so he’s blissfully ignorant
As part of his ignorance he thinks money falls like manna from
Heaven and we can deficit spend unabated.

Stop. His party had full control of Congress for two years and they failed miserably.

And if the Country defaults it won’t be because of the Freedom Caucus.

He's got some much needed infrastructure and other support through Congress.
Unemployment way down. Dow's up 10%.
I'm guessing the math check didn't work out so well, since you didn't bother mentioning it.
