True. But only criticizing one party is reverse partisanship. For example, while you are quick to mention increasing fuel prices while Biden has been President, you sure don't want to discuss how fantastic it is that his policies and shining leadership are now bringing them down. That would give credit where you don't want credit to be due.
I would love to discuss with a true Rhino Republican where all the white supremacy loving, Nazi and Confederacy flag waving and sympathizing is coming from within your happy band? I mean, did they just move to the US from Argentina? And how did the KKK, once a Democan institution, turn into a bunch of capital sacking Republicrats? Seems weird.
And we can compare and contrast with the communist group within the Democan party, although AOC seems pretty tame compared to a bunch of neo-Nazi pro-Confederacy convicted traitor types.

Fuel prices most certainly would have remained lower under a second Trump term or have you not been paying attention to Biden's war on fossil fuel and the "great transition" he dreams of.
Certainly the US didn't want 4 more years of The Greatest Recession Since The Great Depression, so the cause being Trump, the effect was to get his orange butt out of the White House. So yes, you are right, cause and effect. And those pesky record annual deficits, Americans aren't fond of those either. Biden sure cured that issue real quick like! Aren't you happy he did that?

You mean Trumps natural sycophant tendencies with strongman governments like Putins? Yeah, I think Trump was rolling over and offering up our countries belly to Putin just fine, after all, he thought he was a great and smart guy when he invaded Ukraine. Strikes me that Trump, who wouldn't even hand over weapons authorized by Congress to Ukraine, would have been more likely to happily stand bye and cheer on his fascist kin than do much to stop Putin, a great and smart man according to Trump. As opposed to the scumbag KGB officer with delusions of Russia's greater glory in mind.
