Summary
President Joe Biden leaves office with a legacy of leading the U.S. out of the COVID-19 pandemic, advancing infrastructure, semiconductor manufacturing, clean energy, and rallying global support for Ukraine.
However, since live television’s rise more than half a century ago, the skills needed to run for president have diverged from those required to govern.
This led many voters to doubt his capability despite his achievements, forcing him to withdraw from the 2024 race.
Meanwhile, voters have been less critical of Donald Trump’s age, overlooking unpopular policies like tariffs that hurt farmers and manufacturing.
Many Republicans and independent voters accepted Trump’s false claims about the 2020 election being stolen and justified the January 6 Capitol attack, enabling his return to office.
Rescuing? By obscuring the cases by ordering us to stop recording them?
Biden’s legacy: being a competent administrator put in a role that required principles and decisive leadership.

Biden’s legacy is releasing the judge who sold kids, and building more roads for the homeless to sleep on
Biden’s Legacy: Fucked around too much in the center and now we all get to find out.
Center? You mean right?
I think we all know the real legacy of genocide joe.
Biden’s legacy: Rescuing America from a criminal, doing absolutely nothing about it, and being replaced by that exact same criminal

The Pandemic is still here. All he did was literally what trump wanted to do. Pretend like its gone. No osha guidelines for clean air and co2 level requirements. No upgrades to HVACs and air purifiers in schools, grocery stores, or government buildings.
Millions of Americans getting long covid every year. Millions of Palestinians displaced and getting killed. Did nothing to get the tech oligarchs to lose power or their monopolies. Didn’t use his new presidential immunity to stop a fascist wannabe dictator from taking power. Didn’t even come out to protect americans first amendment by protecting tiktok and gave that win to Trump who is the reason it got banned in the first place. Didn’t push to legalize marijuana. Didnt do shit for universal healthcare. Fuck Biden.
I agree with most of your litany, but…
Didn’t even come out to protect americans first amendment by protecting tiktok
Shutting down foreign influence operations and propaganda outlets has nothing to do with the first amendment, any more than prosecuting a slander case does.
Multiple politicians have explicitly come out and said it was because they couldn’t control the images of genocide coming out of Israel, and it was turning people against Israel.
They would’ve shutdown Facebook if that’s what they were doing. Its the only platform that has been proven to be used for foreign influence to possibly change the outcome of the US election.
Or you know, pass data protection legislation and transparent algorithm legislation
Didn’t do shit for student loans despite using that as a carrot for both the general and midterms, then claimed he was doing so much when all he was doing was acting in accordance with policies passed by previous administrations.
Didn’t tell the truth about his cognitive condition until well after the primaries, meaning Americans didn’t have a choice in the primary and Kamala’s candidacy was hamstrung from the start. Therefore we got Trump 2.0. I’d bet money she could have won the general if she wasn’t a nominee by default (I’d’ve voted for someone else in the primary, but I think she could have won it).
Funding the Palestinian genocide.
Yes, it was wrong of the US to send weapons, but Netanyahu would have gone ahead with the genocide regardless of what the US did.
No he wouldn’t have.
Israel is a client state that is completely dependant on the US for weapons and money.
That is why every war they’ve ever fought was forcibly ended by US presidents.
Most recently with single phone calls as seen in the Reagan administration, the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration.
Your take is ahistorical nonsense that can only come from either complete ignorance of recent history or a bad faith attempt to justify Biden’s desire to commit genocide.
EDIT: we don’t just give them weapons. Slightly over a third of ALL U. S. Foreign aid spending has gone to Israel.
Man with limited bullets tries to rob bank.
Man with unlimited bullets robs bank and kills everyone.
You can see the difference right?
Biden’s legacy: Merrick Garland’s DOJ that watched justice wither on the vine
There is no justice in the US. They just wanted to rub it in our faces.
Trump is Biden’s legacy. He is a miserable failure of historic proportion.
This led many voters to doubt his capability despite his achievements, forcing him to withdraw from the 2024 race.
Nope, factually incorrect. Nancy Pelosi of all people forced him to withdraw by saying she would leak the details of how terrible his internal polling data was.
He knew he could only lose but still refused to step aside.
Is this the article you’re talking about? Is it credible? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13748441/Nancy-Pelosi-forced-Biden-quit-brutal-phone-call-ultimatum.html
IMO his legacy is “yet another politician who merely craved power to no end and didn’t know when to let go of it willingly.”
He did okay with America’s economy. He wasn’t Donald Trump. Those are his main positives, and to be fair they’re pretty decent ones. But turns out his negatives were big enough that people became interested in having Donald Trump back, which is a pretty damning indictment.
Vaccines watching you give their credit to an old segregationist fuck
He did some great things for our country. We’ll never get perfect.
Biden mostly ignored covid like a dipshit. We needed and still need real leadership on it and he completely failed on that front.
He did some great things. Covid response isn’t on the list.
