Everything costs.more due to bad economic policy and his mishandling of the pandemic when he got.elected

I won't disagree with anything as it obviously happened other than this. The economic downturn was much more complicated than just Biden. The world is suffering in a very similar way.

The main reason people hate Biden is because people like you keep insisting how great he is, and then when people list their very real complaints you have annexcuse for FUCKING EVERYTHING.

And it happened last time too.

Biden puts out campaign adds showing a signed $2000 check and runs on it as a stimulus check, gets elected, sends everybody $1400 and then lectures everybody who correctly says "Hey what the fuck" by telling them he never said that, you're an idiot if you thought he did, and you should be really grateful to him.

Take that exact approach, lying, lecturing, and co descending and apply it to literally every issue.

That's why hisnpoll numbers are shot, nobody believes a word he says because they're they're exact same fuxking lies he told 4 years ago, we voted for him, nothing got better and a lot of stuff got worse and the people advocating for him still simultaneously lecture you for saying he isn't doing anything and have a long winded excuse for why he can't do anything.

The reason people hate Biden is because I recognize nuance is required to understand complex things like the economy? How does that even make sense?

Hate him for the things you listed. The reason people hate people like you is because you make things personal when there's no reason to or any logic behind it.

I didn't make an excuse for everything I barely even excused one thing let alone espoused how "great" he is, because he isn't.

First fucking sentance.

Suggest if you don't support Biden it's because you don't understand things.

Third sentance dismisses all my criticisms as "non logical"

Do you not realize how much of a condescending piece of shit you sound like.

Also I notice you still haven't been able to point to one fucking thing he's done to actually oppose any of the bad shit he's supposed to be the only one capable of stopping.

That's the big thing, 4 comments later you still haven't been able to name one good thing he's done but you've managed to still lecture and condescend in every one.

"Fuck you you dumb asshole vote for me, no I expressly will not do anything you want and you're an idiot if you think I even could do them"

That message worked great in 2016, I can't wait for you to get the exact results you deserve.
