LOL - Joe's mental acumen is still better than anyone on the GOP side, especially compared to DementiaDonald
TDS

So much so that he finally sits down for an interview and they broadcast part of it at 7am on Good Morning America and edit the transcript for "clarity". :lol:
Holy moses! Did that really happen!?!?! :lol: :lol: I guess considering what we had the past 4 years, a dotty old fool is at least entertaining.

I heard AOC say something about negotiating with the R's, but the vote went along party lines and zero R's voted for it. WTF kind of negotiating is going on there. Does the Kennedy Center really need that much? Have you seen the ticket prices? I'd rather go to the Super Bowl and buy a hot dog inside.
In late December 2020, Democrats united with Trump to push Congressional Republicans to increase COVID-19 stimulus payments from $600 to $2,000 per person. The universal call by those on the Left, at the time, was for a total of $2,000 per person. Ultimately, the $600 plan passed while the viability of $2,000 payments was still gaining traction. References to “$2,000 checks” made in January by Biden and by Georgia’s Democratic Senate candidates were to increase existing payments up to $2,000 — not to issue a new check for $2,000 in addition to the amount already approved.

Because Biden and Ossoff’s statements are consistent with the package Democrats ultimately proposed, but because their timeline for getting those payments out the door was too optimistic, we rank the claim that Biden’s proposed $1,400 checks are a broken promise as “Mostly False.”

JFC Raul, that was a quick fall. In no way, was it said it was an increase of the 600 Trump threw out to us. Never wqas it said, "And if you already got the 600, we'll send you another 1400, immediately!
I know its been rethought and revised to make it all somewhat understandable how it got to 1400. But don't act like its what they meant the whole time. It wasn't.

You asked a question and got an answer. Why are you attributing it to me or making an assumption that I agree with how it shook out? Damn...you're getting grouchy. :ohno:

BDS - Trump's going to jail real soon. Meanwhile, Biden is leading the country to the Greatness Trump conned his cult members into believing he could deliver
:lol: I don't think so Jon. Higher energy costs and dependence on the Middle East, no border security and a mounting crisis, rejoining a bad climate accord that has no chance of succeeding.... I don't think Trump was selling those items.
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Green Energy is the wave of the future. Higher Energy Costs? That's the economic recovery in motion, combined with GOP idiocy in Texas that took refineries off-line.

Biden has a lot of work to do to fix Trump's messes, including the border disaster Trump left. And there is plenty of border security.

And it is GREAT that Biden trusts science and is moving America Forwards, not backwards like the GOP does.

Yes, so much they’re driving trucks through holes in the border wall. And kids in cages are up 725%. Nice work, dems.

President Ford did it all the time too. You're so biased you can't even laugh at Biden. So sad to see your new title of Ultra-Partisan.
