A good in-depth discussion of media bias in political reporting, or why is it that Biden voters are encouraged to understand an empathize with Trump voters but Trump voters are never asked to understand Biden voters?

      Not an American, but I think Biden has been the best US president since at least Clinton, and perhaps even since Carter.

      (Although I do agree he is too old… Does the democratic party really not have a younger equally capable candidate?)

      Obama was a very popular and charismatic guy, but I think he kind of squandered his popularity and failed to achieve results.

      Obama wasn’t successful with the ACA, or Iraq/Afghanistan or the Supreme Court. He didn’t even achieve a minimum wage increase after 2009. Didn’t tackle wallstreet.

      He should have been a bit more confrontational and twisted some arms to achieve results.

      Meanwhile Biden is just steamrolling a lot of successes with a razer thin Senate majority.

          Swalwell certainly seems like a dude whose head is attached to his ass, a rare trait in DC.

          The episode where McCarthy said “Call me a coward again and I’ll kick your ass,” to which Swalwell replied “You. Are. A. Coward,” is also pretty endearing, despite his repetition of a gendered insult. (The word wasn’t coward)
