I'd give Biden a 3 1/2, from his handling of covid, to record inflation and the open border, the Afghanistan fiasco and his embracing of a more progressive policy in spite of campaigning as a moderate who would unite Congress, he has been a train wreck. He can't even get his own party on the same page. He did however sign an infrastructure bill, so I'll give him credit for that.
The "open border" is a conservitard fantasy. The borders of the United States are not and never have been open to unrestricted travel. This is true even if the alt-right propaganda machine and/or the RepubliQ politicians who feed on race hatred use the phrase a billion times.
Anyone with an even rudimentary understanding of how the economy works knows that blaming Biden for inflation is absurd. They also understand that inflation should be regarded in context. There was very low inflation in 2020. Was that a good thing, O conservitards?
Blaming Biden for the Afghanistan "fiasco" ignores who actually signed the surrender documents, and also ignores the fact that Biden was not the commander in chief of the Afghan army.
His current policies are exactly what he said he was going to implement during the campaign. Like them or hate them, there's no surprises there.
I agree that he's been having problems getting some of his party members in line, but that's, y'know, democracy. Contrast that with how any RepubliQ politician who has refused to show absolute, groveling fealty to the Orange Pusbag has been treated.
So I agree that Biden should be completely and totally blamed for everything.
