Signed a bill which will permit Medicare to negotiate the price of some expensive prescriptions and caps out-of-pocket insulin at $35 monthly starting in 2023 and out-of-pocket prescription drug costs at $2,000 annually.
Extended eligibility for ACA health insurance subsidies to people buying their health coverage on the Marketplace, which increased the number of people eligible for such subsidies 20%, from 18.1 million to 21.8 million.
Imposed a 15% minimum tax on the domestic profits of American companies with over $1 billion in earnings, and a 1% excise tax on stock buybacks that will slash the deficit by $300 billion.
More than 9.5 million unemployed Americans found jobs over the past 18 months, and the unemployment rate fell from 6.4 to 3.7 percent. Twenty-two states are reporting unemployment rates below 3%; that’s a record.
In August, Biden signed the CHIPs Act, which will invest $52.7 billion to build microchips in America and boost federal scientific research and development and make the U.S. less dependent on China for electronic parts.
Biden oversaw the attack on al-Qaida leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, who was Osama bin Laden’s right-hand man. He also facilitated the admission of Sweden and Finland, two traditional neutrals, into the NATO alliance, and has led Western support/training for Ukraine, which is becoming apparent in their recent successes against Russia.
I might add he's not constantly tweeting and golfing.
None of that compares to Trump's thriving economy and energy independence. And taking credit for Ukraine military success? Seriously?

If Trump was still president Russia would completely control the Ukraine and Putin would be grinding its citizens under his boot heel.

donald was the first president since Herbert Hoover during the Great Depression to depart office with fewer jobs in the country than when he entered.
If Trump had been president, Putin never would have invaded Ukraine. Trump was too unpredictable.
Putin knew EXACTLY what Biden would do: Sanctions.... and Putin yawned.
Was there a reason for that?

Putin would have invaded the Ukraine because Trump would have given him carte blanche to do it.

Exactly! They are high, but that’s in response to natural market, fluctuations of supply and demand! We were never going to run out of diesel. That’s what Tucker was claiming.

Is this where you tell me that Russia's invasion is just them reclaiming their own land and subduing a rouge region?
Trump hates the Ukraine because of Hunter Biden. He would have enjoyed watching the Ukraine fall under Russian control.
Trump hates NATO and Europe. He would have let Russia take over the Ukraine just to upset those two entities.

Russia didn't invade Ukraine under Trump. We have a weak president that causes bad actors to salivate.

So diesel prices are high, but it's a fake problem. I doubt people who buy diesel would agree.
