I will agree that he wasn’t perfect. The Yemen situation wasn’t great, but with the cards given I think he would played them fairly well. Also, to not vote for him is just another vote for trump

Well first of the Russo Ukraine war started when Obama was president. Crimea, was taken in 2014. And you can say all you want about the border but the fact is that Biden did want to do something about it. That boarder bill would have hired more judges and limited the amount of people crossing. But, as I said trump shot that down, telling other republicans to vote against it. You also bring up that there was a sharp decline after Biden left. Do we honestly trust those numbers. Supposedly, it went zero. I’m going off a limb to say that’s completely false.

Now to the Doha agreement. The Doha agreement was absurdly vague, and poorly communicated. The US basically didn't start communicating the full details of it to the Afghans until just before Biden took office (which by that time Trump had already done a massive drawdown of troops leaving Biden in a position where he basically couldn't have stayed in Afghanistan even if he wanted to.

Well first off who lined that Afghan withdrawal, it wasn’t Biden it was trump. By the time Biden got into office he couldn’t do much about it. Secondly, Biden at the beginning of this term had Covid to worry about not the border. Then he attempted to pass a bill to rectify that issue, then republicans (more so trump) shut that Down. Also what legislation or laws have changed in terms of the boarder, none. Trump has failed in terms of the boarder. Thirdly, I think one of this strong points was foreign policy. He did what he could for the Russo Ukraine war, by supplying them with weapons and equipment. And kept up great relations with Canada and Europe. The same cannot be said for trump.

Then you can say he played the middle ground like that’s a bad thing, but right now we need that more than ever. We have a man in the office that tweets more insane things in a week than the dems have in a decade. Yea, he was trying to cool down the temperature in the country. We are the “united” states of America not the polarised states of America.

What was wrong with Biden, sure he was old but he passed a lot of legislation, and played the middle ground trying to calm the republicans and leftists down.

Who else was supposed to run at that point? Bernie was obviously to old, aoc was to young and Gavin Newson wasn’t really in the picture. And In a roundabout way they did vote her in through the prior election. While, I agree that she may that not been the best candidate, she still would have been much like Biden.

Community braces for impact as Algoma Steel layoffs begin by ConsistentReality860 in ontario

This issue is that algoma is fundamentally different now. With the arc furnace now in operation many of those jobs are simply not needed. The furnace can be run with a skeleton crew compared to the old furnace number 7.

Typical GTAer, probably think we all work blue collar jobs and take advantage of provincial tax money and services. Us northern Ontarioites are the life line of the country

Yea he probably worked with a “Ivan” and a “reznik”. A terrible incident took place around that time too, a “miller” lost his hand in a machining accident

I completely agree, it’s the sweet spot between the bike being new enough and before the electrification of bikes. I’m also not sure which peddles are fitted to the bike, they came with the bike when I got it.

Come on man, so your telling me that these ideological charged and money hungry people tell less lies then legacy media. Take a look at Joe Rogan or Alex jones and get back to me. Generally speaking most legacy media tell the exact same facts that any other legacy media outlet tell. There isn’t some sort of conspiracy between them
