RebE, good, so when you start looking into that, you see certain things! I am primarily discussing this not for the zchus of politicians but for my concern that we can’t talk ehrliche between each other.

For his cabinet, for example, you need to give him credit for having people like Mattis, Bolton, Pompeo, Lighthizer, Esper, Barr, Sessions, Azar, DeVos, Haley. These are all independent thinkers and actors, often with ideas different from Trump. Yes, he fired some/most of them eventually, but he hired and listened to them first. I just googled Biden, and I see one person who had an independent career outside of being a politician or Biden’s staffer – Janet Yellen. Obama – maybe 2-3 people.

tax breaks for the rich – most significant change was restricting rich people from writing off expensive mortgages and local taxes. Dictators: pressing Europeans to stop Russian pipeline, restricting Chinese companies, forcing Europeans to pay more for NATO. Covid – US mortality is indeed 2x worse than comparable countries – and even worse after Trump, as well as vaccine attitude. Biden, similar to Trump, declares victories periodically because it is politically convenient, except there is nothing like Warp speed, remaining issues are not addressed. In all of the above, you seem to be upset at some Trump speeches, without judging fairly his actions that are in public record. After all the learning you had, RebE, you should be able to be a shofet tzedek.
