Summary
President Joe Biden leaves office with a legacy of leading the U.S. out of the COVID-19 pandemic, advancing infrastructure, semiconductor manufacturing, clean energy, and rallying global support for Ukraine.
However, since live television’s rise more than half a century ago, the skills needed to run for president have diverged from those required to govern.
This led many voters to doubt his capability despite his achievements, forcing him to withdraw from the 2024 race.
Meanwhile, voters have been less critical of Donald Trump’s age, overlooking unpopular policies like tariffs that hurt farmers and manufacturing.
Many Republicans and independent voters accepted Trump’s false claims about the 2020 election being stolen and justified the January 6 Capitol attack, enabling his return to office.
Biden’s legacy: Rescuing America from a criminal, doing absolutely nothing about it, and being replaced by that exact same criminal
Biden mostly ignored covid like a dipshit. We needed and still need real leadership on it and he completely failed on that front.
He did some great things. Covid response isn’t on the list.
The Pandemic is still here. All he did was literally what trump wanted to do. Pretend like its gone. No osha guidelines for clean air and co2 level requirements. No upgrades to HVACs and air purifiers in schools, grocery stores, or government buildings.
Millions of Americans getting long covid every year. Millions of Palestinians displaced and getting killed. Did nothing to get the tech oligarchs to lose power or their monopolies. Didn’t use his new presidential immunity to stop a fascist wannabe dictator from taking power. Didn’t even come out to protect americans first amendment by protecting tiktok and gave that win to Trump who is the reason it got banned in the first place. Didn’t push to legalize marijuana. Didnt do shit for universal healthcare. Fuck Biden.
The pandemic is still here?
Yes…

1.8% of all deaths in the US today are due to COVID-19. And we’re not even at a seasonal peak.
Fuck off with this revisionist history bullshit. Maybe if Biden had done the right thing and been a one-term president, and the DNC ran a real primary to get a candidate that could beat Trump in 2024, then he could go down in history as a good man.
Instead, we should remember him as he was: a vain, egotistical coward. He was too worried about appearances to pursue justice against Trump, too egotistical to realize he was unpopular and stood no chance against Trump, and now he pardons his entire family and flees. Rest in fucking piss Brandon. Let him be remembered as the man who watched his country fall to fascism and did nothing.
Biden’s legacy: being a competent administrator put in a role that required principles and decisive leadership.
Biden’s legacy: Merrick Garland’s DOJ that watched justice wither on the vine
There is no justice in the US. They just wanted to rub it in our faces.
Funding the Palestinian genocide.
Yes, it was wrong of the US to send weapons, but Netanyahu would have gone ahead with the genocide regardless of what the US did.
Complacency is not as bad as direct support. The blood is as much on his hands. Tax payers participated indirectly without their consent.
No he wouldn’t have.
Israel is a client state that is completely dependant on the US for weapons and money.
That is why every war they’ve ever fought was forcibly ended by US presidents.
Most recently with single phone calls as seen in the Reagan administration, the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration.
Your take is ahistorical nonsense that can only come from either complete ignorance of recent history or a bad faith attempt to justify Biden’s desire to commit genocide.
EDIT: we don’t just give them weapons. Slightly over a third of ALL U. S. Foreign aid spending has gone to Israel.
Man with limited bullets tries to rob bank.
Man with unlimited bullets robs bank and kills everyone.
You can see the difference right?
Knowingly armed and funded a highly, vividly publicized genocide.
Not mentioned, at all.
“United States of Amnesia”, indeed.
Oh and the points they close on?
The good parts? Of his ‘legacy?’
Yeah, one of them was just obliterated on day one.
Lower prescription drug prices? Poof! All gone.
In what way did he “rescue us from COVID”? The US policy was to just let 'er rip.
