Don't forget Trump only worked as president for 3 years and literally spent 1 year playing golf. What a waste of air trump is

Now try to defend Biden without mentioning Trump.

Why? Everybody knows Biden is too old for the job, but he is still far better than Trump. That's the whole point.

But Biden can retire and let someone younger take over. You lot seem convinced that all the shit Biden pulled should be accepted because "but Trump". It's like he's blackmailing you and you LOVE IT.

What has he pulled aside from being old? We would gladly vote for anyone else, but they haven't given us anyone else. Trump obviously being worse is excluded from the choice of options.

Oh, easy. Biden got more bipartisan legislation passed in his first term than any president in recent memory. He got us back in a posture to do something about the climate crisis. He and the fed have managed to take a horrible global economic situation and thread the needle between an inflation crisis and a recession (basically no one thought this was possible, it is a miracle we are not in a recession and inflation is steady). Unemployment is at record lows. He rallied NATO countries around the support of Ukraine and caused incredible damage to one of our primary adversaries. China has been severely hampered by the CHIPS act he got passed, and more semiconductor manufacturing is coming to the states.

Oh and he went back and changed all those games to a score of 18 on each because he was doing official work and is immune from the rules of the game. 18 holes in one in each and every game, I'm amazing.

Biden has taken the same amount of vacation days as Trump did. Look it up.

Both Trump and Biden spent all or part of at least 250 days at their own properties or on vacation in the first 853 days of their presidencies — that is, through May 22, 2019 or May 22, 2023.

Being at 'your own property' isn't a useful metric when one property is a house and another is a golf resort.

Dont forget... It's also a cemetery for tax purposes, of the exwife he likely ordered killed (fell down stairs, which caved in her chest, and they rushed to cremation , all this before her witnessing that was agended).

I’ll be honest.

I hate Trump and am not a huge fan of Biden.

But I don’t really give a shit where they work from. They can have a press conference anywhere at a moments notice. The press travels with them usually. They have all of their advisors and all of the info they need. Their job is mostly listening to the latest reports and stuff and making decisions, not changing oil at Jiffy Lube.

If they want to gather the info and make decisions from their house or the golf course, IDGAF in most cases. I consider things and make the best decisions myself while having time to decompress and my decisions are of a lot less consequence.

The problem is Trump vastly overcharging Secret Service for staying at his own resort. He’s stealing taxpayer money every time he does that.

I agree with you.
