    And of course, we should be keeping track of such things.
    However, If we start a thread building the list of broken promises and ludicrous claims, we risk crashing the mainframe.....

    No, not unless his only promise has been "to promise". I have no doubt that he will disappoint you and you'll be stuck between a rock and a hard place not sure whether to admit that you were duped or to double-down with the same sort of denial you've been boasting so far. I'm am very pleased that I'm not in your shoes.

    Fourth, your opinion of Joe Biden and your hatred of him is of no concern to me. You are going to hate everything he does, everything he says, right from the get-go. I was not that way with Donald Trump. For an entire year, I gave Trump a chance and he sorely disappointed me.

    Well if you were, then your use of the English language and semantics is terrible. Replace the word "caple" with "horse" in your previous sentence - I do not think he is caple. Is his name Horse or has he taken on the identity of someone called Horse and you doubt him? Now, most people would just assume that the word you were looking for was "capable" :)

    Ok, I'm game for that. You start a thread and claim what promises have been broken.

    Since you are just sooooo sure that such a thread would crash the mainframe, as you indicated, I challenge you, right here and right now, to start such a thread. And I will respond to it every time you make a claim.

    So, yeah, I'm good with this.

    Looking forward to your brilliant thread!!!

    Of course, the hate and self-justification we have been dealing with during the Trump years will not stop, it will just focus somewhere else- avoiding looking at self until there is no escape.
    Eventually, it will be seen for what it is in mirror of all those who harbor it.

    Shall we start with Bidens gift of hope to the people- "There's nothing we can do now" ?
    Don't forget that the idea would be both broken promises and blunders- things like foolish statements and claims. Basically, the things that demonstrate the lack of capacity to do the job.
    Maybe Obama will chime in; after all- he once said "Never underestimate Joe's ability to FU*K things up". And of course, if anybody should know, Obama would be the one to believe.

    You've decided to pursue the subject, I see.

    Biden is going to have to get Schumer to change the Senate 60 vote rule if he wants to get anything done. He is already getting so much push back on his immigration proposal that is the only way it would ever pass the Senate and even then it wouldn't be a slam dunk on the democratic side. Right now, Schumer doesn't control the senate. Joe Manchin does.

    My condolences and I'll get back to that soon.
    <COMMENTS EDITED>

    Biden displays all the signs of another moronic Bush Baby Junior and he's just waiting for his chance to prove it. I'm sure Biden is going to be equally dishonourable .... but I'm not a "US-American" so "hate" has nothing to do with it.

    It remains to be seen whether or not you can keep your promises as well as Creepy Joe. :nod: Good luck!

    It's best to treat Biden like those extra-long commercials on TV: Put him on mute and go out to the gardening. If someone "does him in" you won't need the TV on to find out. You'll notice the country celebrating.

    President Biden?

    When he wears sun glasses he gains something ...

    Probably Biden's sun glasses are going to make the pair with Trump's hair.

    Creepy Joe Biden is the latest model of incompetence turned out from the same batch that produced Bush Baby Junior, Sarah Palin, Hank Johnson, Maxine Waters, and Hillary Clinton. Buckle up, America, and keep your children at home. I suggest that all Americans who can afford it should leave the country and only return when the smoke clears. God only knows when that'll be. :blownose:

    Ganging up? You obviously don't even perceive the gravity of the situation. After four years of worry free corruption, I understand. Everything is different now. Maybe you'll see it some day.

    The point you missed is that people can be corrupt or not and when it comes to American politics you can be sure the White House has been saturated in corruption since at least John Kennedy & his brother were bonking Norma Jean and invading Cuba. But we are talking about Donald Trump whose "corruption" (as you call it) hasn't even been proved. Russian collusion together with Trump? Childish talk. So ..... the "ganging up" of influential men and women who have much to gain by moving Trump out the way of their devious plans should not be considered star-witness material. Maybe you'll see that someday.

    Your forgot the Poster Child of Incompetence - Barack Obama - and remember Xiden was his "foreign policy expert". :lol:

    If you enjoyed the eight years of their failure and chaos you're about to enjoy four more years of it. Xiden was in office all of 2 days when this happened:

    https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/1/23/china-authorises-coast-guard-to-fire-on-foreign-vessels-if

    That is how Xiden's handlers in Beijing have responded to his administration's feckless approach to China. Obviously, they smell the familiar stench of weakness...

    I was happy to see that Obama wanted Americans to have access to medical care and I did appreciate him for ridiculing his Nobel Prize but other than that I didn't like him very much. However, I never thought of him as being incompetent. I think he was just a two-faced b'stard who should never have been re-elected.
