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.
