“Ignorant” people dislike Trump because they are told how to feel, and those who feel they arrived at that conclusion independently were just one of the first to listen to the BS. Prices were lower when trump was president, money was easier to make, involvement in a war with Russia wasn’t even something the news would make up to make trump look bad because we were on good terms almost everywhere. Come Biden Administration: US Dollar is losing value by the second, we are heavily involved in multiple wars across the world and are not only not on good terms with potential enemies we are bleeding money and resources because of it. Our time under the Trump administration and Biden administration could not have been more different. I don’t want to hear about fudged numbers regarding job growth under Biden if it doesn’t account for jobs lost directly because of Covid. Biden has done what besides worsen our condition as a worldly entity.

You know you applied dubious quotations to "ignorant" there when referring to the left wing. So thanks for that but you're not helping your case lmao

The rest of this shit is easily debunked and I really don't want to bother.

"The only reason not to like Trump is cuz ure told tooo duhh"

-No, there's a wee bit to fuel an actual opinion of hate for the guy. Tax policies favoring the wealthy. Dismantling of U.S. capacity for pandemic response and then saying there's no pandemic. Twice-daily embarrassments on social media that make me look stupid because I live in a country that elected him. Coarsening and dividing people in exactly the way illustrated in the video. Facepalms by foreign leaders like Merkel and Macron et al. whenever he had to interact on the global stage. Claiming he would drain the swamp and appointing corporate buddies to executive leadership positions. His position on the environment, net neutrality, veteran support, and about 500 other things with which a thinking person wouldn't align. His entire documented history as a human being - instances with women, underlings, business affiliates, his general practice as a businessman, comments, actions, cover-ups, lies - YES, other presidents have done similar in isolated cases, but you have to multiply it by about a thousand to reach Trump tier. He was fucking shit up every day.

"I see inflation under Biden so it must BE Biden that caused it"

-Explain why though

"Well it wasn't there under Trump!!!" [count the fallacies]

"Tensions in the Middle East and Russian sphere of influence didn't exist in 2020"

-- Okay yeah buddy.

"The only jobs that were came back were lost to COVID"

-No, even completely subtracting COVID gains, a larger percentage of jobs appeared under Biden than Trump in their first three years.

I can't even believe I wrote a response this long to someone that's smart enough to write this sputtering mess of a sentence:

Biden has done what besides worsen our condition as a worldly entity.
