He mortgaged our future, and still had the worst jobs record since the Great Depression.

 |  Now that Biden has eliminated Covid (cough, cough), I'll take the pre covid Trump over Biden any day, any way.
 
But, since he's done so well, surely the Dems want him in 2024. |

 |  That's ridiculous speculation.  And rather crude at that.  And various Dems were saying not to trust the vaccine because Trump was responsible for getting it produced.  There was, as expected, a bunch of back and forth political bull$hit going on.  There are still a lot of folks dying from Covid now.  I think I saw that slightly more died under Biden's regime than under Trump in about equal time frames.  And that the vaccine does not, as originally promised, actually prevent getting Covid, nor prevent transmitting it.  It just, supposedly, makes it less severe and helps older folks with pre-existing conditions to survive at a better rate.
 
So "focusing," as has been going on for the last three or four years does not prevent more transmission, as we can see as many are still getting it and dying from it.
 
Of course that's no big deal now because Biden ended the pandemic so there is no need to create weekly headlines about the number of deaths. |

Is that before or after he tried to steal the election?
