Trump was asked nicely for over a year to simply return the documents. He refused and told his layers to say "we have none".

Joe Biden returned all documents when they were found. There was no need for the FBI to execute a search warrant to obtain any stolen documents.

There is no comparison between these two incidents.

Oh, the media has confirmed it?

Well, now the GOP has a trifecta I assume they will correct any laws that need correcting and implement them?

It'll be interesting to see what congress/senate will do about these issues in the weeks ahead.

True. The US economy has done well under biden in spite of corporate price gouging.

>> > - Gas prices are down. Nope.

Indeed. Donald has already said it's hard to bring prices down after the election. Before the election he said he would bring prices down.

History will be kinder to Biden than the American public.

That was a Trump plan. Biden got it done, trump didn't.

> the lapse of peace agreements in the Middle East,

What peace agreement did Biden (or America) let lapse?

> his debate performance that lead to his being replaced,

His debate performance was bad, but he was not replaced. He stepped down. He was pressured I think, but it was his choice.

Hunter's legal woes matter not. Who is Hunter?

His pardon is regrettable but understandable.

Trumps pardons (past, present and future) are none of the above.

>> > This is why Biden was removed and replaced.

>> Biden was not removed or replaced.

> If he had not "stepped down" he most certainly would have been replaced.
> Enough megadonors have come forward to confirm this.

Biden did have the deligates, so I'm not sure he could have been replaced.

Can you imagine the GOP outrage if the DNC did replace him?

She didn't use words like deport?
