I'm no expert on the US scene but it seems to me Biden is turning into an excellent President (sit back down GM!):
-direct action to reduce child poverty
-action on employment
-redistribution
-action on infrastructure
-complete turnaround to be a world leader in vaccine supply
-first to provide vaccines to India
-Stopped the longest war in US history by pulling all troops from Afghanistan
We were told he was too old and "gaff prone". Where are the gaffs? How is his age provinv a problem? It seems to me he is conducting the office with dignity, has the right priotities and is getting things done. I'm very impressed by him.

Sod the vaccine !
Yes it’s good troops are pulling out but Afghanistan still hates America, there be more trouble.
All he’s doing is giving unemployment folk large sums of money but very little action to help them back in to work.
I will certainly be watching him more closely maybe the old fossil might change my mind or yet make more racial slurs.
I doubt the UK will help out the USA again if they go to war again.
Yes there’s is a crisis at the USA and Mexico border. Biden no longer wants a influx of migrants in anymore but in his debates he said he will let them in.
I agree Cary - Biden is certainly going to leave his mark. For all his bombast as an action man, Trump achieved very little in reality.
GM - is there a problem in reality at the Mexican border? I know Mexicans cross it but what is the actual problem & how much is media and political scaremongering? All societies need an "enemy" to rally against and blame all our problems and individual failings on.
We can no longer blame the EU here so wait for a new one to arise after the Covid dust settles and we don't become a world powerhouse now the illusory Brexit "shackles" are lifted!!

If it was Trump in a fake White House the media will cause a fuss. Biden is a puppet !
Anyone is preferable to the divisive Orange Faced Comb Over Man Baby psychopath who just spent 4 years ripping US cohesiveness apart.
I'm of 2 minds: either the US "establishment" will ensure an ex-president is never charged with a crime or..they may want to bury the notion of another younger, smarter Fascist Trump ever coming along again.
Joe Biden is simply continuing US "socialist" policies that have enriched the country for decades since FDR showed the way and built the ginormous US Middle Class during the 40/50/60s as a result of his policies that injected $Trillions into the economy.
He needs to hurry up: China now has approx 775 million Middle Class..over half their population,,built on a mix of socialism and capitalism
With Hedda on this one. Yes the fake set thing is a bit odd but the imbecilic thug is thankfully gone. In the detail of Biden's policy - away from the ageist distractions - is some good stuff that will make a positive difference.
