Biden gave his State of the Union address a few days ago. Pretty willing affair with lots of Republicans unable or unwilling to let the President speak without heckling.

A number of people however saw a pretty competent effort.

So which Republican member wrote this tweet ?

NO !! But even a broken, evil, deranged clock is right twice a day isn't it ?:)

I just thought it was pretty amazing for Donald Trump (or someone who accessed his Twitter feed...) to say something accurate about Biden that would drop a million jaws in unison. Always prepared to be surprised.

You do know Biden is setting up Australia. We will end up the Ukraine of Asia if the yanks get their way.
 
So Trump was a loony, that was causing global unrest.
Well I think the new mob in office have taken it to a whole new level.
What a hoot, this doesnt look good. Lol

Putin has suspended the nuclear arms treaty and put their nuclear weapons on a combat ready mode.

Well @basillio it looks like everything has turned to poo since Trump left.
Rocket man is throwing missiles around, Russia has cranked up the nuclear clock, Joe has put tariffs on EU made E.V's.
But appart from that everything is going great. Lol

Even on the home front, the taxpayers are paying the coal miners to dig up the coal and give it to the coal burners, yep we have everything on an even keel now.

Not to mention Biden's idea of sacrificing Australians to fight China in a similar fashion to Ukraine.

Idiot will get us all killed.

As I've said on a number of occasions I only pick up what is happening in the U.S politics, from what is presented in the Australian media.
But when Trump was in, the issues that were causing everyone angst were due to him and by all accounts when he was removed all the corrosive financial and political agendas would be reversed.

Yet now it appears that U.S protectionism has increased and China, North Korea and Russian political tensions have increased and relationships have worsened.

So from the outside looking in, it just looks like the shrills and pitchfork crew have been de activated, I wonder when the media will find something to get their passion going again, it sounds like the U.S could do with them holding the current Govt to account.

It isn't as though anything on their agenda, is coming to a joyous conclusion. :rolleyes:

So on trade: Trying not to use a normal outlet, because Murdoch may own them.

As a presidential candidate, Joe Biden promised a change from the go‐it‐alone, my‐way‐or‐the‐highway approach to trade policy of Donald Trump. Disappointingly, during the first year of his presidency, Biden has instead largely embraced the failed Trump policy of unilateralism and protectionism in trade. He and his administration have done so politely, without Trump’s bluster and bombast. Yet, the results have been mostly the same: a turn toward more trade protection and managed trade, toward a proposed industrial policy that would add more restrictions on trade, and toward a destructive unilateralism that threatens to continue undermining the multilateral trading system overseen by the World Trade Organization.

On border policy, it looks as though that is getting really out of control: there was a nice dip during covid though.

On North Korea:

North Korea's 11th missile launch of 2022 was its March 24 launch of an ICBM, marking its first successful ICBM launch since 2017. According to Japanese Minister of Defense Nobuo Kishi, one or more missiles from North Korea's June 5, 2022 launch had a variable trajectory presumably designed to evade missile defenses.
The 2021–2023 North Korean missile tests are a series of North Korean missile tests in 2021, 2022, and 2023. North Korea conducted a record number of tests in 2022, including the first test over Japanese territory since 2017.[1]

On China:
Well relations don't seem to be improving.

Russia:
Relations seem to be worsening.

EU:

Trade tariffs have been increased especially in regard electric vehicles.


So someone who is really up with U.S politics, how is it going generally, post Trump?
