Actually, 2016 alone had a LONG list of conflicts https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_armed_conflicts_in_2016 But don't let facts get in the way of your viewpoints I didn’t forget about Syria, But he didn’t start it and he wasn’t escalating it. Actually Biden probably had far more influence on the situation in Syria from the prior regime. As far as Biden “getting shit done” 🤣🤣🤣🤦♂️, a bunch of nothing. “Infrastructure” is another term for wasteful gov. spending, they spent how much on the (now AA credit rated) U.S. taxpayers future earnings? Probably double what it should/could cost if they weren’t involved. “Drug prices” are the same as they were under Trump, and actually had a spike for a bit. Actually, Biden has made it quite a bit more difficult for the couple prescription meds. I take, far more bureaucratic control(as you’d expect from Democrats).

And show me ONE conflict that was started or elevated once his term began? A list of conflicts abroad that we didn’t get involved in, and were actively trying to remove ourselves from at that point, doesn’t point any blame towards his admin.!

Wasteful government spending?? lol Are you even kidding?? Do you not drive on the roads in this country or know that a massive number of bridges are deteriorating and need to be replaced/repaired. Two right in this area re being done now, one replaced, one refurb'd thanks to that government waste. The Drug prices thing hasn't even kicked in yet, so no, Biden didn't and yes, they're the same. That doesn't even kick in 'til 2026. Trump talked about it and never pursued it. Dude, seriously. Making shit up to try and ignore the truth... Quote “There he goes. One of God's own prototypes.

The infrastructure repair shouldn’t require the Fed. to pass a bloated $1T dollar bill to repair the roads and bridges. Didn’t make that up, and that’s no shining light on Biden! The prescription drug increase in regulation has happened, none of the prices changed. So who’s the one making things up?! You even said it hasn’t kicked in yet, how are you giving Bidumb credit for that? I’m not ignoring anything, my eyes are wide open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if anyone had actually put anything into maintaining them. maybe it wouldn't be 1 Trillion bucks, but it's not just roads and bridges. It's also upgrades in internet access and infrastructure. Improvements in public transit. Upgrading ports of entry. Power infrastructure and one thing we may agree on, funds towards developing a greater network of EV Charging Stations across the country, amoungst other things. It's a good bill that got bipartisan support. As for the prescription, why wouldn't I give credit to the guy that actually passed the bill, no matter when it kicks in? And no, they have NOT happened. Quote Finally let Medicare negotiate drug prices. Medicare will negotiate prices for high-cost prescription drugs. This will include drugs seniors get at the pharmacy counter (through Medicare Part D), and drugs that are administered in a doctor’s office (through Medicare Part B). Drugs become eligible for negotiation once they have been on the market for a fixed number of years: 9 years for small molecule drugs and 12 years for biologics. Medicare will negotiate up to 10 drugs per year during 2023, with those prices taking effect in 2025, increasing to up to 20 drugs per year. The policy will establish a clearly defined negotiation process that is fair for manufacturers, and gets the biggest savings on drugs that have been on the market a long time. This discourages drug companies from abusing laws to prolong their monopolies, while encouraging investments in research and development of new cures. Drug companies that refuse to negotiate will owe an excise tax. Quote “There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind, never even considered for mass production.
