You look up "urgent" in a Foreigner's dictionary it says: "You play tricks on my mind. You're everywhere, but you're so hard to find. You're not warm or sentimental. You're so extreme, you can be so temperamental"

Not much love for old Joe at the moment...

Biden's approval rating craters to 38% - the LOWEST of his presidency: 60% of independents disapprove, 67% of all Americans oppose his border policies, and 50% think he has bungled the COVID response

I wonder what percentage don't like whipping and deporting asylum seekers and what percentage think he's an open borders communist? And what percentage want Biden to actually do something about helping developing countries produce their own vaccines vs the people who think masks are tyranny.

I honestly think most people have no clue what his border policies even are ... And by most people i mean me

He's not being particularly clear but I suspect that's because he's on the down low preparing for increases in climate refugees from South and Central America. He'll build Trump's wall in a less obvious, more insidious way.

So much for my hope that Psy-Fi might've had a change of heart and become a Biden lover. :(

People are giving Biden a hard time over the US-Mex border. My feeling is that it's a problem today because no President to date has found a solution. That border is the longest land border in the world where the third world rubs up directly against the first world. No luxury of buffer states like they enjoy in Europe, for example, and no easy fix.

Time for this thread to show a bit of Biden love, and for me, absolute top of the list of his most attractive traits: He's not Trump. He doesn't spout blatant lies and nonsense; he's not a sore loser, still in denial about an election that has been affirmed and re-affirmed in endless recounts and court cases. He doesn't promote false covid cures or insurrections. He's not the head of a party that is dismantling American democracy and denying Texas women the right to abortions. Like reputable scientists the world over, he knows that a vaccination program is the way back to Business As Normal. He also knows that in the face of global warming windturbines are a key tool to be encouraged, not to be ignorantly laughed at Trump-style.

Lisna, do you think Trump will run again in 2024? If so, who do you imagine the Dems running against him?
