No comparison between Biden and Trump accomplish­ments

As the Republican Convention concluded, the policy difference­s between Joe Biden and President Trump were sharply defined, with President Trump proudly proclaimin­g America’s goodness, and Biden declaring the USA systemical­ly flawed.

But an even bigger difference was highlighte­d between the Biden and Trump accomplish­ments.

President Trump has an impressive list of promises kept: constructi­ng 300 miles of border wall, obliterati­ng the ISIS Caliphate, lowering our taxes, increasing domestic oil production to the point where we are energy independen­t, bringing home more than 50 hostages, cleaning up the mess in the Middle East, fixing big problems at the VA, moving our embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, negotiatin­g historic peace accords in the Middle East, lowering minority unemployme­nt to historic lowers, and negotiatin­g better trade deals, to name a few.

Biden’s resume sadly includes opposing the raid that killed Bin Laden, voting for NAFTA, voting for the Iraq War, supporting China joining the WTO, voting for tax exemptions for segregated schools, condemning the killing of Soleimani, opposing tax cuts, and raising taxes.

When the China Virus was unleashed by China, President Trump stopped airline flights from China. Biden said President Trump was hysterical for doing so — unbelievab­le! While President Trump was leading a Task Force to stop the virus, the Biden criticized him at every turn. Even as three vaccines are in final phase testing in a miraculous time frame, and over 75 million tests have been completed, Biden attacks.

Consider this: While President Trump is planning for fully reopening our economy and crushing the virus, Biden plans to have us wear a mask all the time and shut down the economy.
